Fidesz Budapest reported on its social media page that a fine of 150 million was imposed in the case of the purchase of electricity in Frankfurt approved by Gergely Karácsony in one person, and the police are also investigating the matter.

"Do you remember the scandal surrounding the purchase of Frankfurt trams? It ended up with a 150 million fine, and the emergency police are also investigating the case of the streetcar. These were the used vehicles that Gergely Karácsony decided to purchase for HUF 7 billion in June, on the last day of the extraordinary legal order, in one person. Even then, the case bore all the hallmarks of the left-wing city administration:

Circumventing the democratic way: although he could have convened a general assembly to discuss the issue, Karácsony preferred not to leave it to chance and decided in one person.

Unprofessional preparation: it soon became clear that Frankfurt also scrapped the trams because they cannot be air-conditioned , which is why they are very hot in the summer.

Suspicious procurement: already in the summer, it was suspected that the public procurement had been tendered illegally, already during the tender process the successful tender for the Frankfurt trams had been prepared.

Now all this has been proven: the Public Procurement Decision Committee has uncovered several serious violations of the law at BKV in relation to the tram muti. Not only was he ordered to pay a HUF 150 million fine, but the Emergency Police also ordered an investigation on suspicion of "agreement restricting competition in public procurement and concession procedures".

The question is the usual one: When will he finally be responsible for the series of scandals surrounding Budapest's transport companies? How will Gergely Karácsony and the city administration reimburse the public procurement fines of approximately 300 million for the people of Budapest, who will thus lose out on many developments and quality public transport?

When will the left stop pointing the finger at others and start working for the people of Budapest?"
