Hungary seizes $18m cash tied to ex-Orban-era minister in probe
Anti-corruption authorities in Hungary say they found around $18 million in hidden cash, buried in forests and stashed in buildings and warehouses during an investigation. The funds are reportedly tied to a former Orbán minister, Miklós Seszták.
Prime Minister Péter Magyar promised a sweeping anti-corruption drive after ousting Orbán in April.
Anti-corruption agency carried out searches as part of investigation into Orbán-era minister accused of taking bribes Hungary’s anti-corruption agency said on Friday it had seized cash worth $19.5m (£14.8m) buried in forests and hidden elsewhere while investigating an ex-minister of nationalist former leader Viktor Orbán’s cabinet. Miklós Seszták, Hungary’s minister of national development between 2014 and 2018, is accused of taking bribes in a scheme involving the state transport company, purchasing secondhand buses at inflated prices.
An ex-minister faces a bribery probe as Hungary's new government investigates alleged corruption during Orban's rule.
