Az egyik szolnoki kórház orvosa gyanúsítottként hallgattatott ki, mivel hálapénzt fogadott el egy betegétől. A rendőrség a tényt a Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok Vármegyei Rendőr-főkapitányság tájékoztatása alapján közölte, és a dolog a Telex megbízható forrásaként állította be. A kórház, a Hetényi Géza Kórház-Rendelőintézet, megerősítette, hogy a kardiológiai osztály egyik orvosa ellen rendőri intézkedést hoztak, és a nyomozás során az orvos gyanúsítottként került felvételre.
A rendőrség szerint a gyanúsított orvos 2026. június 29-án délelőtt egy betegtől hálapénzt fogadott el, ami az egészségügyi szolgáltatás elvégzéséért történt. A nyomozás a Nemzeti Védelmi Szolgálat jelzése alapján kezdődött, és a vármegyei rendőr-főkapitányság gazdaságvédelmi osztálya kezdeményezte a vesztegetés bűncselekmény elkövetése miatti nyomozást. A beteg is felel tettéért, mivel jogtalan előnyt biztosított az orvosnak.
Zsolt Hegedűs, az egészségügyi miniszter a Facebookon megjegyezte, hogy ilyen ügyek esetén nemcsak az egyéni felelősséget kell vizsgálni, hanem az intézményi felelősséget is. A miniszter szerint az ilyen gyakorlatok nem mindig egyetlen ember elszigetelt cselekményei, hanem gyakran több személy részvételével zajlanak, és mások, bár nem aktív szereplők, tudhatnak róla, de szemet hunynak. Ez, szerinte, elfogadhatatlan. A miniszter hangsúlyozta, hogy hamarosan olyan bejelentővédelmi és whistleblower-funkciókat fognak elősegíteni, amelyek hasonlóak a fejlett egészségügyi rendszerekhez, és biztonságos, védett és következményektől mentes lehetőséget nyújtanak azoknak, akik visszaélést tapasztalnak, de ma még félnek megszólalni.
A miniszter szerint a betegek, a tisztességes egészségügyi dolgozók és a magyar egészségügy érdeke is az, hogy ne legyen helye a korrupciónak, a hálapénznek és az ezek feletti hallgatás kultúrájának. A hálapénzt ellehetetlenítő törvény 2021. január 1-jétől lépett életbe, és a szigorú retorziókról már korábban is írtunk részletesen. A Magyar Orvosi Kamara (MOK) tapasztalatai szerint a hálapénz kivezetése történelmi jelentőségű lépés volt, de a bárói struktúrák ma is tovább élnek, csak éppen máshogy: pozíciókban, kisajátított tudásban és kapcsolatokban. A mai orvosbárók hatalma nem a borítékban, hanem a struktúrákban van, és nemcsak a beteg, hanem a rendszer is függ tőlük. Ezt a helyzetet részletesen elemzi a MOK "Az orvosbárói struktúrák leépítésének lehetőségei a magyar egészségügyben" című vitairata, amiről korábban is írtunk bővebben.
A nyomozás további részletei, például a konkrét pénzösszeg, a beteg identitása vagy a kórház belső vizsgálatai még nem ismertek, de a rendőrség és a kórház együttműködést nyilvánított be a nyomozás érdekében. A szakemberek figyelmeztetnek arra, hogy ilyen típusú ügyek gyakoriak lehetnek, és a rendszeri változások szükségesek ahhoz, hogy a korrupciót és a hálapénzt teljesen elkerüljék. A jövőben a whistleblowers és a bejelentővédelmi mechanizmusok fejlesztése kulcsfontosságú lesz a megfelelő védelem és felelősségvállalás érdekében.

Magyar NemzetParty-alignedCenterFactual 98Objective 852 days agoThe article reports on a corruption case involving a former Fidesz deputy mayor in Budapest’s III district, Puskás Péter, who allegedly accepted bribes from a businessman. The businessman regularly paid Puskás and other local politicians to secure contracts and influence decisions, including through the support of Matisz Károly, a party official. The prosecution highlighted that after a political shift in the municipality, the ratio of influence between Puskás and his counterpart, Czeglédy Gergő, was reversed. Additionally, the businessman was involved in a separate scheme where he facilitated bribery by a company group led by Gy. Tamás to secure municipal contracts. The article notes that the businessman, identified as Z. Zsolt, previously owned the Pannon Park Forest Kft., which was accused of multiple serious crimes, including budget fraud and economic offenses. Despite these allegations, the prosecutor proposed a lenient sentence due to Z. Zsolt’s cooperation with authorities and admissions made during an earlier investigation.

Six politicians were detained at the beginning of June for suspected involvement in a corrupt business practice. Among them is Őrsi Gergely, the current mayor of District II, along with former officials and members of the Fidesz party. The Central Office of the Prosecutor has confirmed that the detention of five suspects will be extended, while the Fidesz member Puskás Péter was released because the reasons for his detention have been resolved. The investigation alleges that a company managing park maintenance systematically provided illegal advantages worth tens of millions of forints to affiliated companies and bribed officials to secure contracts. Additionally, an executive of a catering service group is accused of bribing officials to maintain their contracts.

The heatwave has caused significant strain on water systems, with warnings of potential collapse due to excessive demand from households, tourists, and car washes. The Tisza River reached its lowest recorded level, raising concerns about environmental impact. Politically, the ruling Fidesz party dissolved the Sovereignty Protection Office, sparking criticism from opposition figures who argue this weakens institutional safeguards for Hungarian sovereignty. Other topics include the appointment of Hajdu János as Fidesz’s security director after his interrogation, internal disputes within the National Economic Council (NER), and allegations of electricity theft by a market manager for cryptocurrency mining. Additionally, there are reports of ongoing investigations into corruption involving local officials.

TelexIndependentCenteryesterdayAccording to a late June survey by the 21 Research Center, published by 24.hu, the Tisza Party leads with 67% support among voters eligible to vote, while Fidesz holds 24%, and Mi Hazánk stands at 6%. When considering the entire population, the Tisza Party has 57% support, Fidesz 20%, and Mi Hazánk 5%. The May survey showed similar trends, with the Tisza Party leading 69–23 among voters and 60–20 overall. However, due to differences in methodology between the two surveys, they cannot be directly compared. The June survey used a hybrid method, collecting data from June 23 to July 1 through SMS links for an online questionnaire, with phone interviews for those over 65. The sample was weighted based on KSH 2022 census data, ensuring representativeness across the population. The margin of error for the total population is ±3 percentage points, though it may be larger for subgroups.

TelexIndependentLeftyesterday Charles of Earth explains why he donated nearly 100 million forints to the LeagueThe Hungarian news outlet Telex reports that Földi Károly, a 77-year-old businessman from Vecsés, and his family provided nearly 100 million forints in support to the Tisza Party during its campaign. In an interview with hvg.hu, Földi explained that they began supporting the party because they believed it was committed to ending corruption and creating a transparent system. He mentioned that he had discussed potential support with party leader Magyar Péter in late 2024 and pledged financial assistance if viable funding mechanisms were established. Földi emphasized that there is no alternative but to work within Hungary, rejecting the idea of returning to Asia or engaging with 'istans' for economic ties. He also noted that some friends who were overly loyal to Fidesz caused a rift in their relationship. Additionally, Földi recounted an incident where the National Election Committee (NER) allegedly threatened him during the 2012 local elections, offering campaign funds in exchange for future contracts.

These include Gergely Őrsi, former mayor of the II. district, Zsolt Láng, former mayor of the same district, and Zsolt Molnár, a former MP from the MSZP party, until October 4. The Central Investigative Prosecutor’s Office (KNYF) requested the extension for seven suspects, including these three and other Momentum politicians and two entrepreneurs. However, the prosecutor’s office lifted the detention for Péter Puskás, a former deputy mayor from the III. district. According to the KNYF, a businessman allegedly bribed officials across multiple municipalities between 2011 and 2024, spending over 2 billion forints to secure contracts and influence political decisions. The investigation suggests that bribes were distributed among different political factions, with amounts split in varying proportions depending on political alliances. Additionally, the businessman allegedly bribed officials from both the II. and III. districts, including current and former mayors and local representatives, to ensure favorable treatment for his firms.
