The chief prosecutor has announced that its chairman, Ferenc Biro, is suspected of corruption and abuse of authority. Police also raided Biro's home, and took away documents. He has admitted to "lending his official car to his wife to go shopping" but rejects the allegations and says he is being targeted for political reasons,

The article discusses a series of raids targeting Hungary's anti-corruption chief, Ferenc Vargha, which have caused significant political upheaval within the Hungarian government. These raids, conducted by the Central Investigative Prosecutor's Office, are part of an investigation into allegations of misuse of power and corruption. The actions have led to a public and political outcry, with critics arguing that the raids are an attempt by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's administration to undermine anti-corruption efforts and consolidate power. The situation has raised concerns about the rule of law and the independence of judicial and anti-corruption institutions in Hungary, spotlighting the ongoing tension between Orbán's government and the European Union over democratic standards and governance.
