Hungarian prosecutors raid Fidesz party data center in embezzlement probe
Prosecutors and Hungary's tax authority raided offices housing Fidesz party data servers on July 21, 2026, as part of an investigation into suspected misuse of grant money through Hungary's National Cultural Fund. Six current and former officials have been charged in connection with the misuse of approximately 17 billion forints ($53.5 million). Fidesz, which lost power in April 2026 after 16 years, accused the new governing Tisza party of using legal means to destroy it.
