On Friday, the Buda Central District Court ordered the detention of Szeged municipal representative Bálint Szabó. Blikk has learned that the politician is being held in a mental ward . Szabó organized the farmer's demonstration on Dózsa György út in the summer, his plan was to block the main roads in the capital with tractors, but no one but a few people joined him.
However, during this period, according to the report of the counter-terrorists, he came close to the prime minister several times, in one case he stopped the convoy of the protected leader to call on him to resign, reports the tabloid.
The Budapest Regional Investigative Prosecutor's Office announced at the end of September that it questioned Szabo as a suspect for road endangerment and violence against an official. According to the report, there were five occasions when the representative of the Great Plain came close to a protected person, outwitting the security personnel.
On December 13 last year, he was included in the escort convoy of the then French President Emmanuel Macron, who was negotiating in Budapest, and thus managed to enter the area closed to the public.
Waiting for the protected leader to leave the Carmelite monastery, he stood in front of the convoy on foot and attempted to stop it. All this was prevented by the personal protection unit," reads the official document.
According to the report of the Terrorism Center, Szabó's actions are characterized by impetuousness and lack of restraint. In the videos uploaded to his social media page, Szabó talked about the fact that the investigative prosecutor's office proposed a psychiatric observation, the order of which is to be decided by the court.
The anti-terrorist report roughly covers the reality, in some places it is incomplete and unprofessional," Bálint Szabó told the newspaper in front of the court.
Blikk asked the Central Investigative General Prosecutor's Office: after this, is it expected that the prosecutor's office will enforce its motion and order the man's detention and psychiatric examination in a closed ward? According to the prosecutor's response, "contrary to the suspect's statements published on social media, the court did not make a decision on the merits of the case today, given that the Szeged municipal representative did not appear at the meeting despite the legal summons. The investigative prosecutor's office ordered the detention of the suspect. No further information about the case can be disclosed."
After the trial, Szabó still drove to the fast food restaurant on the edge of town. Here, however, the police appeared minutes later and put him in a police car in front of several of his followers.
