VEIL OF MIST OVER SPY STORY LIFTING

Ten days after the publication of the article in Magyar Nemzet more and more papers claim that at least one agent of the Romanian secret service has been pinched in Hungary.

Yesterday the daily Népszabadság wrote its sources ’could imagine’ that the married couple and mainly the husband had been working for Romania. Though the Premier has requested information of the state secretary of national security about the spy case, he allegedly mentioned the case months ago in the circle of left-liberal journalists. This is interesting because András Tóth initiated an investigation into the matter who had leaked out the confidential information. The press mentioned an opposition MP, too, who allegedly had known about the spy story before the scandal broke out.
