According to the indictment, in May 2019, two police officers performed border police patrols, and a combination of vehicles towing a timber trailer, which is considered to be a heavy truck, was stopped on a road section between two settlements in Hajdú-Bihar County.
Police began taking action against the man driving the vehicle and told him he had committed an offense because he could not drive the vehicle on the road.
When one of the police officers moved away from the scene of the measure a bit, the other police officer offered the man that if he gave them money, he could avoid the infringement procedure and the sanction.
The man agreed and asked how much to give, to which the police officer replied that they had enough for both of them.

Hidden in the license previously returned to him, the man handed over a ten thousand forint banknote to the police officer, who took the money with him and handed it to his companion, who agreed to accept the money and put it in the inside pocket of his jacket.
The man reported the incident after his departure to his boss, who informed the chiefs of the police, who found a banknote accepted as an illegal advantage in an inspection.
The man who handed over the corruption money testified during the investigation, while the two police officers, who have since terminated their service, denied committing the crime.
In the indictment, the prosecutor’s office suspended the imprisonment of the bribe man, while he sentenced him to a sentence of imprisonment against former police officers.
