ATTILA KULCSÁR HAS PAID TO FERENC BAJA, TOO?

The ex-broker said in his confession he had given tens of millions to the state secretary, but not in connection with the bank scandal. Ferenc Baja, the state secretary of the Prime Minister’s Office (Hungarian Socialist Party) had a friendly relationship with Attila Kulcsár who gave him several ten million forints in an apartment at 1 Újpest quay at night, said Kulcsár in a confession.

This money was in connection with the so-called Synergon case. The Socialist politician was a frequent guest of the apartment of the ex-broker which was next door to the office of Britton Ltd. Altogether HUF 30-50 million has been given to the politician, the money had come through the off-shore companies Montrade and Balmoral with the help of Al Abed Hassan Syrian money-changer.

Kulcsár mentioned that Ferenc Baja visited him for a couple of times accompanied by László Kovács, chairman of the Hungarioan Socialist Party and his lady friend, Ms Éva Endrényi but at such occasions they had consultations about business matters and money was not given.
