Hungary Questions Dismissed Slovak Intelligence Chief Over Ukrainian Convoy Case

Hungarian authorities have questioned Michal Hajdu, the recently dismissed head of Slovakia's domestic intelligence agency (SIS), in connection with a case involving a Ukrainian state bank convoy detained on Hungarian territory. Hungarian counterterrorism unit TEK arrested employees of the Ukrainian state bank on March 5 on Hungarian soil. Hajdu, who led Slovakia's Security Intelligence Service before his dismissal, was summoned for questioning as part of the ongoing investigation into the incident. The case has drawn attention across the region, involving personnel from a neighboring country's state financial institution being apprehended by Hungarian special forces, raising questions about the circumstances of the convoy's activities and potential intelligence dimensions of the affair.
