Hungarian PM Magyar seeks immunity waiver in Danube phone case

Hungarian PM Péter Magyar asked his Tisza party's parliamentary club to vote to lift his immunity following a Prosecutor General request to resume a June 2024 investigation into an incident where a phone was thrown into the Danube. Magyar stated he would do it again, signaling defiance. The move is a notable political-legal development in Hungary, potentially escalating tensions between the government and judiciary.
