Hungary has launched an internal investigation of its tax authority, anti-terrorist forces and other agencies into the seizure of a routine Ukrainian bank transport under the previous government.
Seven Ukrainians transporting $82 million in cash and gold in two armored vehicles were briefly detained in March.
They were held on suspicion of money laundering when the government of former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban was in conflict with Kiev.
Ukraine's Oschadbank said its employees had been carrying out a routine operation, similar to the one it carried out every week, when they were caught.
Today, Prime Minister Peter Magyar, the landslide winner of Hungary's April elections, said the prosecutor general "must handle the case without delay."
Orban was one of Russia's closest European allies and made skepticism about the Ukraine war a central point of his policy. Hungary returned money and gold to Ukraine just days before Magyar's inauguration.
