I think the diary must be in private hands as none of the Sommer family foundations (there are at least three) know of it.

I think the problem might be that if the author confused Sommer's wife with his sister, then some degree of scepticism must devolve onto the rest of the article

Sister-in-law ... the sort of mistake journalists make all the time ;) The rest of the article has a photograph of pages and detailed extracts regarding some major races so there is no doubt in my mind about the diary's existence.
It's a worry to think that such things can just vanish.
