Fidesz leader Bóka János files criminal complaint against Csézi Erzsébet and Schummer Orsolya

Fidesz faction chief Bóka János lodged a complaint alleging document falsification by Csézi Erzsébet and Schummer Orsolya after a voting irregularity in parliament.

The leader of the Fidesz faction, Bóka János, announced a criminal complaint for alleged falsification of an official document against MPs Csézi Erzsébet and Schummer Orsolya. The complaint stems from an episode in which Schummer Orsolya pressed a voting button for Csézi Erzsébet during a parliamentary session, a fact captured on video that was later shared by the party. Csézi responded publicly, stating she had asked a colleague for assistance and that the vote reflected her intention.

The House committee decided not to open an investigation, explaining that Csézi's voting machine malfunctioned and the assistance was provided for that reason. Both legislators expressed regret over the incident and pledged to avoid similar actions in the future. The Fidesz statement emphasized that parliamentary rules require each member to vote personally and that the alleged conduct violated the law and the oath of office.
