The Brussels left closed down in 2006, when Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány's inaugural speech was leaked, and people protesting against him and his government were met with a series of atrocities by the police. Gál Kinga, a member of the European Parliament of Fidesz, recalled the events on Kossuth Rádio.
Between September 19 and 21, 2006, a real manhunt was carried out in Budapest, however, according to the propaganda of the Gyurcsány government, they were attacked by extremists. On October 23, a peaceful crowd celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the 1956 events was brutally attacked.
Based on a recent government decision, after 15 years, a group of victims of the 2006 Kossuth Square mass dispersal that has not yet received compensation will receive compensation - Kossuth radio's Sunday Newspaper program recalled the announcement made by the manager of the National Defender Service on Friday.
Radio Kossuth reminds us that in September 2006, when Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány's Ószöd speech was leaked and a small, violent group of protesters stormed MTV's headquarters, the police saw the time had come to take revenge.
In the evenings, after the peaceful demonstrations in front of the Parliament, people had their hair cut in the city center and unsuspecting citizens on their way home from work were beaten and arrested.
Gál Kinga, the representative working in Strasbourg at the time, said that letters were received from relatives trying to help. They began to reveal the events, and then on October 4, Kinga Gál spoke in the Interior and Justice Committee that police brutality was taking place before the eyes of Brussels, and therefore urged an investigation into the case. Former prime minister Ferenc Gyurcsány's speech in Öszöd triggered a wave of protests against him and his government in 2006.
On October 6, the representative wrote a letter to the Minister of Justice of the MSZP-SZDSZ government, but no reaction was received from the government. The liberal side in Brussels is closed, and the Gyurcsány government's propaganda was about extremists attacking, not about what actually happened: whoever was in the wrong place at the wrong time, even on the way home, was beaten up and ended up in prison or hospital, said Gál Kinga.
Subsequently, on October 23, the fiftieth anniversary of the events of 1956, a peaceful crowd commemorating the events was brutally attacked by the police. The archive material of Radio Kossuth recalled the accounts of those on the scene, who said that the police used tear gas, sword blades and rubber bullets to disperse the crowd of commemorators, who included mothers pushing baby carriages, families and elderly people. The police also went to restaurants and hospitals after people.
There was literally a manhunt going on. We sent the recordings to the Commissioner of the Interior and Justice so that this could not be allowed. We listened to the victims: after the serious physical injuries, they were in a serious mental state, as they did not know what would happen to them, recalled the representative. Kinga Gál said that a hearing was held on December 7, 2006, to which victims were invited, and the European Union's Commissioner for Home Affairs and Justice was also present.
It took the change of government after 2010 to acknowledge the injustice done to the victims.
When in Brussels you can see the reasons for which the Hungarian government has been attacked continuously since 2010, it is very insidious whose human rights and grievances blow the fuse in the world of Brussels.
