MILLIONS BURIED IN FORESTS! HUNGARY RECOVERS $19.5 MILLION IN CASH IN PROBE OF FORMER GOVERNMENT MINISTER

Hungarian authorities say they have recovered approximately $19.5 million in hidden cash during an investigation involving a former minister who served under ex-Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

The National Asset Recovery and Protection Office said the money was discovered during searches in Budapest and three other counties.

Some of the cash was reportedly buried in forests, while other amounts were concealed in agricultural buildings, warehouses and residential properties.

The recovered money included more than five billion forints, approximately 2.6 million euros and $1.2 million.

The investigation involves former National Development Minister Miklós Seszták, who is suspected of receiving more than $37 million in bribes and kickbacks connected to public procurement and construction projects.

Seszták was taken into police custody in September. The allegations remain subject to investigation and have not been established as a conviction.
