The Hungarian judiciary has ordered the one-month provisional detention of Aron Orban, brother of former Hungarian nationalist leader Viktor Orban, as part of an investigation into migrant trafficking. Aron Orban and three others were arrested in a joint operation by the National Investigation Bureau (NNI) and the National Asset Recovery and Protection Agency (NVVH). They are suspected of human trafficking committed as part of a criminal organization, having helped over a hundred Vietnamese nationals obtain visas in 2024, charging them a'recruitment fee'. Another suspect was also placed in provisional detention, while a third suspect was placed under judicial control for four months and the last was released. Viktor Orban responded by accusing the government of seeking to eliminate his political opponents.
