Viktor Orbán’s brother detained in people-smuggling investigation, Hungarian PM says

Hungarian authorities have detained Aron Orbán, the brother of former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, amid a people-smuggling investigation. Prime Minister Péter Magyar announced that four individuals were arrested, including three former ministers. The investigation, led by the national asset protection and recovery office (NVVH), focuses on allegations of human smuggling involving Vietnamese citizens. Viktor Orbán criticized the detention as politically motivated, claiming it aims to eliminate political opposition. The NVVH, established to tackle corruption during Orbán's tenure, is central to Magyar's anti-graft efforts, dubbed "Operation Purgatory."
