The brother of former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Áron Orbán, has reportedly been arrested this Monday as part of an investigation into migrant trafficking. The news was made public by current Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar, who referred to information published in local media.
The investigation concerns suspicions of illegal brokering in providing foreign nationals with visas and residence permits in Hungary, by exploiting connections with individuals of influence in state institutions.
According to reports in Hungarian media, the investigations focus on the activities of a network of companies that were engaged in brokering the employment of foreign nationals and providing the documentation necessary for their entry and stay in Hungary.
