of course Fritz5.32 cannot see it because it is a null mover.
black is losing after Nxa8 Kc8 because of the fact that black has to move and
not because white has a threat.
Fritz prunes line with no threats.

If you want a program to solve problems then do not buy a program that is a null
mover and that there is no option to turn the null move off.
