Mihály Varga promised to be present at his hearing, but he did not show up at the meeting of the investigative committee on the MNB case.
Varga Mihály failed to attend the parliamentary hearing regarding the MNB investigation, despite previously stating he would participate. The session began without him, and no explanation for his absence was provided. The committee also addressed the absence of György Matolcsy, who has been detained and is refusing to testify. Matolcsy's lawyer argued that a public hearing would violate his client's dignity and presumption of innocence. The committee is considering alternatives for Matolcsy's hearing, while Varga's previous commitments to attend raise questions about his absence. The investigation into the MNB's past leadership continues, with multiple reports filed against them.
