Hungary recovers millions in cash buried in forests during Orbán-era graft probe

Arrested in September 2026; denies wrongdoing

They found 5.07 billion forints, €2.66 million and $1.26 million in cash, about $19.5 million, stashed in farm buildings, warehouses and a home. The money sits in a case against Miklós Seszták, development minister from 2014 to 2018.
