According to Magyar Nemzet's article, Gergely Karácsony sent a letter to the chairman of the investigation committee that he could not attend the meeting due to his other commitments, but they could count on his presence the next time. And István Tarlós explained in his letter: what the Christmas company is doing now is a desperate attempt to reshape what happened .

"It was a blunder that they set up an investigation committee where the mayor's people are in the majority," he added.

As István Tarlós' letter drew attention to, the investigation committee's hands are tied and they can only continue their work in certain cases.

" The main question is how this real estate sales system works and the town hall itself," said the former mayor, with whom you can also read an interview in the January 5 issue of Demokrata.

"Bajnai Gordon also expressed himself in a letter regarding the sale of the City Hall, which he published on his Facebook page on December 30. The former prime minister believes that it is a fabricated case, and according to him, the audio recordings that were previously made public could have been made using illegal methods. In addition, Bajnai also explained that he is not aware of any intermediary system, and that he did not speak with Balázs Barts regarding the sale of the City Hall, and he also claims that he does not know Zsolt Berki,"  Magyar Nemzet wrote.

According to the newspaper, Csaba Tordai said at his hearing that he does not belong to the staff of the Office of the Mayor, and that he does not know Zsolt Berki. In addition, Tordai also spoke about the fact that no decisions were made on the sale of real estate in the capital, Balázs Barts, the CEO of the BFVK, only reported on which areas could be sold.

"Kiss Ambrus, the general deputy mayor of the Budapest municipality, said that there was no question of selling the City Hall. In addition, he stated that he does not know either József Berki or Zsolt Berki, and that, as far as he knows, there is no real estate sales system in operation, and he said that he has not met any real estate agents. Ambrus Kiss also commented that he does not know why his person was brought up in the case of the sale of the City Hall. Furthermore, the left-wing politician believes that the audio recordings that have been made public have been edited together."
