Hungarian President Katalin Nowak resigned over pardoning a child sex abuse convict. The full text of the video message in this regard was published by the portal Hirado.hu.

Hungary’s first female president, Katalin Nowak, announced her resignation amid mass opposition rallies condemning her decision to pardon the deputy director of an orphanage involved in a child sex abuse scandal. Novak interrupted his trip to Qatar to make a statement following protests in the Hungarian capital.

“I announced a pardon, which surprised many people. I made a mistake. In April, I decided in favor of the pardon, believing that the convicted person did not abuse the fate of the children entrusted to him,” Novak said on a television. statement.

In 2023, he pardoned 20 people before Pope Francis’ visit to Hungary, but it was recently learned that one of those pardoned was the deputy director of the orphanage in Bicske, Andrew K., who was convicted of covering up the director, whose victims are the wards of the institution.

Local media wrote that this decision may be due to the fact that the deputy director is close to the ruling Fidesz party, whose leader since 2010 is the current Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

The then Minister of Justice Judit Varga was also involved in this scandal, without Novak’s approval Novak’s decision to pardon Endre K. would have been impossible. Former Justice Minister Judit Varga, expected to lead the ruling Fidesz party’s list in this year’s European Parliament elections, has announced she is leaving the Hungarian parliament, where she headed the European Affairs Committee, and politics in general.

It was previously reported that a man suspected of committing indecent acts against three young children was detained in the Khmelnitsky region.

Let’s recall that in May last year, law enforcement officers detained a 54-year-old man in Kyiv for harassing and extorting a 12-year-old schoolgirl he met on the Internet.
