A Hungarian parliamentary commission investigating abuses in the judicial enforcement system plans to hear 65 people across five separate lines of inquiry, according to media reports on 24 September 2026.

Those listed include former Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s cabinet chief Antal Rogan, former Justice Minister Judit Varga, former state secretary Pal Volner and former president of the Chamber of Judicial Officers Gyorgy Schadl. All are identified in the source as figures in a high-profile corruption case.

Some witnesses will be required to give oral testimony, while others will submit written statements. Following expanded powers granted to parliamentary commissions, summoned individuals are required to attend and provide truthful testimony.

The commission was established in June 2026 on the initiative of the Tisza Party. The available report does not state when the hearings will take place or whether all testimony will be public.
