Thousands protest against Hungary’s Orban after insider leaks graft tape

In Budapest, thousands of protesters gathered near parliament, calling for the resignation of Hungary’s chief prosecutor and Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

The protests stemmed from allegations made by Peter Magyar, a former government insider, who accused a senior aide to Orban of attempting to interfere in a corruption case.

Magyar had released a recording of a conversation with Judit Varga, then his wife and Hungary’s justice minister, where she detailed an alleged attempt by aides to Orban’s cabinet chief to tamper with documents related to a corruption case involving former justice ministry state secretary Pal Volner and Gyorgy Schadl, the former head of the Court Bailiffs.

Both individuals have denied the charges, with prosecutors seeking jail terms for them, Reuters reported.
