Hungary grossly violates rights of Ukrainian cash-in-transit employees: handcuffs, blindfolds, medical aid only after loss of consciousness, pressure, and absence of lawyer
Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has declared unacceptable and inadequate actions by the Hungarian authorities, calling them a cynical violation of international obligations, including the European Convention on Human Rights, the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, and the Ukrainian-Hungarian Consular Convention, following the detention of seven employees of JSC State Savings Bank of Ukraine (Oschadbank) on March 5, 2026.
According to the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, the money transporters were held in handcuffs for 28 hours - One of the men only received medical attention after he fainted.
Adrienn Laczó also reacted to our newspaper's response to Máté Kocsis's submission of a bill on the matter.
Oschadbank's legal representative claims that they have not received any official notification about the currency and gold seized along with their cars.
