Sándor Lezsák: I demand that I not be branded with a communist agent past.
Sándor Lezsák, a former Fidesz MP, was mentioned in a recently released state security database. He denied being an agent, claiming he was a victim of surveillance. Lezsák expressed outrage over the allegations, stating that those spreading such lies will face legal consequences. The database was made public during an event where Prime Minister Péter Magyar announced the activation of a website containing data on former agents. Other notable names in the documents include constitutional judge Miklós Patyi and Fidesz analyst György Nógárdi. Former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán also revealed he was approached for recruitment during his military service in the 1980s, which he declined.
