Tisza Party Says Inviting Orbán Viktor Won’t Aid Abuse Probe

Members of the Tisza party argued that summoning former prime minister Orbán Viktor to testify before the committee examining enforcement abuses would not further its investigation. Molnár Zoltán said the name is absent because his presence is not seen as beneficial, and Toroczkai László confirmed that the committee’s earlier list did not warrant his inclusion. Fürcht Pál, president of Mi Hazánk, announced plans to add the former chief prosecutor’s name, a move the Tisza members said they are willing to consider.

The committee, which voted for 65 individuals including Rogán Antal and Schadl György, has not discussed Orbán yet. Accusations arose that Tisza members blocked Orbán’s summons, but records show no such vote. In a separate pardon committee, a dissenting vote from Novák Előd was needed to reject Orbán’s appointment, while the child-protection committee members agreed to postpone any decision on the former premier.
