Hungary grants asylum to Polish ex-minister facing corruption charges over spyware scandal.
Hungary has granted asylum to Zbigniew Ziobro, former Polish Justice Minister, who faces criminal charges in Poland over alleged misuse of funds for crime victims to buy Israeli spyware.
The move, confirmed by Hungary’s foreign minister, follows a similar decision for another Polish official and has prompted Poland to protest, calling it interference.
Ziobro, a key figure in Poland’s former Law and Justice party, claims he fled political persecution after losing parliamentary immunity and having his passport revoked.
Prosecutors allege he played a role in a surveillance program targeting political opponents, which could carry a 25-year sentence if convicted.
The situation highlights ongoing tensions between Poland and Hungary over judicial independence and political accountability.
