Hungarian authorities have recovered nearly $20 million (€17.7 million) in hidden cash during a corruption investigation into a former minister under ex-Prime Minister Viktor Orban . The country's newly established National Asset Recovery and Protection Office said Friday that investigators discovered the money during searches linked to former National Development Minister Miklos Sesztak. The discovery is part of a sweeping anti-corruption campaign launched by Prime Minister Peter Magyar, who defeated Orban in April's parliamentary election. The money was discovered during two days of searches in the capital, Budapest, and three Hungarian counties.
