Orbán Áron and his partner were arrested

A court has ordered the detention of Áron Orbán and his partner for a month due to their involvement in a visa trafficking case. They are accused of facilitating Vietnamese citizens' illegal entry into Western Europe through Hungary. The authorities suspect they charged recruitment fees for visa processing at Hungarian embassies, aiding over a hundred individuals. The prosecution argues for their detention due to the serious nature of the crime and their extensive foreign connections. Orbán's lawyer claims he had cooperated with authorities prior to his arrest, questioning the necessity of the operation. The investigation, which began in 2024, gained momentum after the April elections, leading to multiple arrests, including Orbán and his associates.
