Hungary Explained the Detention of Ukrainian Oschadbank Employees by Money Laundering
A criminal case was initiated against Ukrainian citizens.
Seven Oschadbank employees were detained on suspicion of "money laundering," the National Tax and Customs Administration of Hungary reported. A criminal case was initiated against them.
Among the cash collectors detained in Hungary, according to local authorities, is a former general of Ukrainian intelligence.
The National Tax and Customs Administration of Hungary also stated that during 2026, more than $900 million, €420 million, and 146 kilograms of gold bars were transported through the country's territory to Ukraine.
Amidst the situation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine recommends citizens refrain from traveling to Hungary, as the ministry cannot guarantee their safety, and advises choosing other transit routes if possible.
As reported, yesterday in Budapest, seven employees of the Ukrainian Oschadbank were detained. They were on a transit trip in two armored vehicles between Austria and Ukraine, transporting money and valuables as part of regular transfers between state banks.
“Essentially, this means that Hungary has taken hostages and stolen money. If this is the 'strength' that Mr. Viktor Orbán spoke about today, then it is the strength of a criminal gang. This is state terrorism and racketeering. We have already sent an official note demanding the immediate release of our citizens. We will also appeal to the European Union with a request to provide a clear qualification for Hungary's illegal actions — the taking of hostages and robbery,” wrote Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha.
