Súlyosabb büntetést kérnek a 14 év börtönre ítélt ír férfira, aki megölt egy amerikai nőt Budapesten

The prosecution is seeking a harsher sentence for an Irish man sentenced to 14 years for murdering an American woman in Budapest. The case will be reviewed by the Budapest Court of Appeals after the defendant requested a reduction of his sentence. The man allegedly killed the woman in November 2024, placed her body in a suitcase, and buried it in a forest near Lake Balaton. He did not admit guilt during the preliminary hearing, claiming the incident was consensual. The prosecution found numerous injuries on the victim's body and is advocating for a 12-year sentence without parole and a ten-year ban from Hungary. The defendant remains in custody due to flight risk concerns.
