The court started their trial this week in Szombathely. The number of victims is high, 345, but there are also 52 defendants, and the number of pages the judge has to read is more than 41 thousand, Index reported.

According to the accusation of the prosecutor, the doctors promised health status assessment for free, and with that offer they

called and sent letters to many elderly people.

The perpetrators, who called each other professor and doctor, even though none of them has such a degree, said during the evaluation of the results that all of the patients suffer from deadly diseases. Therefore, they offered products and stated that only those could cure them.
