“Nearly $20m (£14.8m) in cash has been found hidden in farm buildings and buried in forests as part of an investigation into a former minister of Viktor Orbán, authorities have said. Miklós Seszták, who served as minister of national development for four of the ex-prime minister’s 16-year rule, is accused of accepting bribes as part of a scheme involving the state transport company. He has denied any wrongdoing. Hungary’s new Prime Minister Péter Magyar unseated Orbán in a landslide election in April on the promise of launching a sweeping anti-corruption drive. On Friday, following the two-day search for the cash – found in secluded locations across the country – Magyar described it as ‘the end of the mafia’.” (11/14/26)
