An Associated Press report says Hungarian authorities detained Viktor Orbán's younger brother Áron Orbán on 9 November 2026 on suspicion of human trafficking, part of Prime Minister Péter Magyar's "Operation Cleansing Fire" probe into abuses under Orbán's 16-year rule, which has already led to the detention of a former central bank governor and two ex-ministers. Police say the suspects facilitated residence permits for more than 100 Vietnamese nationals; Orbán calls the action politically motivated, writing, "I am the target; my younger brother is just a means to an end."
