According to the director general of the ÁBTL, there may be thousands more alongside Sándor Lezsák who are listed as monitored on the magnetic tapes.

The director of the State Security Historical Archives revealed that thousands may be misidentified as informants due to a technical error. Lezsák Sándor was incorrectly listed as a network member but was actually a subject of surveillance. The archives are currently investigating the extent of the issue, which affects names on magnetic tapes. The director apologized for the confusion and stated that names of non-collaborators will be removed from the database. Political reactions have emerged, with calls for accountability and the removal of the database until clarity is achieved regarding who were informants and who were merely surveilled.
