Hungarian Parliament lifts immunity for PM Madjar, two ex-ministers in corruption probe

The Hungarian Parliament has unanimously voted to strip Péter Magyar's parliamentary immunity, enabling criminal investigations into a 2024 nightclub incident involving phone theft and broader corruption allegations. This action, which also affects two former Orbán-era ministers, is widely perceived as politically motivated ahead of upcoming elections, signaling a significant escalation in domestic political conflict. The full scope of charges and the credibility of the investigations remain unclear.
