Former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is facing a motion to detain and take him into custody in connection with the Ukrainian gold convoy. Other persons are also involved in the case.
On Thursday, the legal representative of Ukrainian money carriers Lóránt Horváth submitted a proposal to detain and take into custody the Hungarian ex-prime minister Viktor Orbán and other persons responsible for the case of the Ukrainian convoy with gold and cash. With reference to the index.hu server, the TASR correspondent in Budapest informs about it.
According to the 24.hu server, the lawyer’s proposal is based on an unspecified newspaper article.
Detention of Ukrainian employees
Employees of the Ukrainian State Bank were detained on Hungarian territory by members of the Hungarian anti-terrorist center TEK on March 5. The convoy was carrying cash as part of a regular transport between banks in Austria and Ukraine. Among other things, the investigation should reveal whether the detention case had a criminal or political reason.
