Prosecution Announces Identity of Key Figures Mentioned in Varga Recording

After two years of speculation, the identities of the individuals commonly referred to as "Tóni, Barbara, and Ádám" in a widely-discussed case have been disclosed by the prosecution during a press conference held on Thursday morning.
The case, which gained public attention through a recording released by Péter Magyar featuring Varga, has remained a subject of intrigue, especially since the indictment did not mention these individuals by name.

Paul Fürcht, the Chief Prosecutor of the Central Investigative Prosecutor's Office, addressed the speculation surrounding the identities of these three individuals mentioned by Schadl in one of the intercepted phone conversations which have captivated Hungarian public opinion since the case's onset.

"We were accused of not knowing who Tóni, Barbara, and Ádám are but indeed, we know who they are. They are those whom you also are aware of," Fürcht stated. To the best of our knowledge, Tóni, Barbara, and Ádám referred to Antal Rogán, his wife Barbara, and his chief of staff Ádám Nagy. Schadl mentioned them in relation to a thirty-year-old business deal, which, according to the Chief Prosecutor, was investigated with no evidence found of such a transaction.

"Having a connection with a defendant does not inherently suggest suspicion of a crime," Fürcht remarked regarding a certain chief of staff, likely referring to Ádám Nagy. He also mentioned an entry in György Schadl's diary, which stated that on October 8, 2021, an individual had to pick up a car from a dealership to deliver it to Ádám Nagy with a significant amount of cash in the glove compartment: "To pick up a Mini Cabriolet car to deliver to Ádám Nagy with 1,120,000 in the glove compartment." Fürcht clarified that although money was indeed found in the glove compartment, it does not automatically constitute a crime.

When asked about whether the prosecution needs to charge based on all the materials in the investigation, we sought insights from lawyer Dániel Tran.

Independent Member of Parliament Ákos Hadházy had previously inquired in writing to Péter Polt, the Chief Prosecutor, regarding the identity of "Tóni, Barbara, and Ádám." Polt's responses at the time were summarized as knowing but not concerning.
