Another horror weekend in Hungary – people must have gone mad by the lockdown
The last week was once again ripe with crime. It might be the lockdown that has been going on for almost another four months now, or it might simply be the direction the world is changing to. Last week a duo of drug dealers used their daughter to help them sell drugs, a family father pulled out a machete and started chasing his son’s birthday guests and lastly, an argument turned into a bloody mess as the man stabbed his partner with a kitchen knife.
Illegal drug trade
The Baranya county Police Headquarters investigated a 31-year-old woman from Pécs and her partner, a 35-year-old man from Enying for drug trafficking
with a new psychoactive substance. According to Bama, the police arrested the pair some time ago, but the investigation was only closed recently. The Pécs Police arranged a coordinated operation to raid the two suspects due to a well-founded suspicion that they are dealing drugs regularly in Pécs.
Investigators conducted a thorough search of the man’s and woman’s apartments, during which they found and seized 100 grams of suspicious plant derivatives, 54 grams of white powder thought to be drugs and have found pills, gels, and nearly half a million HUF (€ 1,400) in cash.
The woman is suspected of endangering a minor, as the police believe that at the request of the mother, her daughter was also selling psychoactive substances to several people.
During the investigation, the police have found another suspect, a 34-year-old man from Pécs, who was later arrested by the police. There is a well-founded suspicion that the man sold marijuana to the woman, who then dealt it to her own customers. Police searched the man’s apartment and have found 52 grams of plant derivatives suspected to be drugs, and a few other suspicious items, such as pills and a digital scale. He was prosecuted for illegal drug trade by the police. After their interrogation, the regional court initiated the arrest of the woman and the two men. The police have handed over the documents to the prosecutor’s office in the last few days.
In another case, Hungarian police have successfully busted an illegal crime cave and have managed to shut down a criminal organisation as part of international cooperation for selling Hungarian woman as prostitutes to Germany.
Birthday party went wrong
A family father in Borsodszikra has found a strange way to thank his son’s birthday guests for coming.
The 62-year-old man was detained and interrogated by the Rudabánya Police on the basis of a well-founded suspicion of altercation.
The suspect got into an argument with his son’s birthday guests at midnight on February 20, 2021, at their home in Borsodszirák. The enraged father pulled out a machete and threatened the guests. The young people were fleeing, but the man continued his chase through their garden. Fortunately, no injuries happened during the incident. The police detained the man who refused to testify during his interrogation as a suspect.
Family quarrel lead to bloodshed
The Heves county police have detained a 45-year-old man. Based on their current standpoint, the Criminal Department of the Heves County Police Headquarters is prosecuting the man from Kisnána for causing life-threatening bodily injuries.
According to the investigation, on February 20, 2021, the 45-year-old man stabbed his partner with a kitchen knife in their family home in Kisnána several times and then also injured himself with the weapon. Ambulance staff transported both of them to the hospital. According to the reports, the victim has suffered life-threatening injuries.
Police detained and interrogated the man as the suspect; he testified. A motion was made for his arrest.
