A Budapest court on Friday fined opposition LMP lawmaker Márta Demeter 1.8 million forints (EUR 4,800) on charges of abusing her office.
According to the charges, Demeter had acquired information concerning the movements of the Hungarian military back in 2018, and suggested that a military aircraft had carried one of the daughters of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán from Cyprus to Hungary. An investigation, at the time, however, found that a Hungarian soldier, also named Orbán, and his family had been among passengers of that flight.
Apart from falsely claiming that the aircarft had carried a family member of the prime minister unlawfully, Demeter also “disclosed data that could not be published out of the public interest”, the prosecutor said when pressing charges against the deputy.

In the US, she would have been awarded a 2 million dollar CNN contract – starting a wage for liars.
She would have been invited by Oprah to do a special. She could have another go at having a guest who has a case of “memories may vary”. Since she interviewed the Haz-been couple it has come out that she wishes not to be defined by that ‘best interview ever’ as she and Gale K her bestie had said at the time. Fact is, she allowed herself to be defiled by that interview. Hard to come back from such thoughtless, careless work for a professional. Never ceases to amaze me how supposed professionals don’t check and double check information before making money off any.
