Overview

• Independent MP Akos Hadhazy entered the Hatvanpuszta estate without permission and posted footage showing manicured gardens, a swimming pool and a large dining hall.
• The Facebook video drew more than 700,000 views by Wednesday and a wave of comments accusing Viktor Orbán and allies of corruption.
• Orbán rejects claims that he owns the property and characterizes Hatvanpuszta as an agricultural operation.
• Orbán’s 84-year-old father, Győző, told the pro-government tabloid Bors he bought the land in 2011 and intends to recreate a 19th‑century farm there.
• The controversy revives long-running scrutiny of alleged elite enrichment as roughly €19 billion in EU funds for Hungary remain frozen, with no new official investigation reported.
