| Description | Anne Frank was posthumously baptised by a Mormon for the first time in 13 years after nine similar rituals were allegedly carried out in the 1990s.
The Jewish girl and her diary rose to fame after she died during the World War Two Holocaust in 1945 at the Bergen-Belsen camp in Germany.
But a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints member has caused fury by baptising her by proxy at a Dominican Republic temple last weekend.
Researcher Helen Radkey made the discovery after she found the same was done to the parents of Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal two weeks ago.
Ex-Mormon Ms Radkey found Annelies Marie ‘Anne’ Frank was baptised on Saturday, in a move that will leave the Jewish community furious again. |
