(ALTERNATIVE CROP) Picture taken on March 1, 2013 shows then economy minister of Hungary's Orban's government Gyorgy Matolcsy talking to the members of the Economy committee of the Hungarian Parliament at the Delegation Hall of the parliament building in Budapest, during his official hearing. Hungary's former central bank governor -- once a close ally of ex-leader Viktor Orban -- was detained on October 21, 2026, his lawyer told local media, in one of the country's most high-profile graft cases. Gyorgy Matolcsy, 71, who headed the Hungarian National Bank (MNB) between 2013 and 2025, was taken into custody in connection with a sprawling scandal surrounding his tenure, his lawyer Pal Batki told news site Telex.
