Hungarian prosecutors are investigating statements made by a former government insider alleging attempts to influence a graft case, and have heard former justice minister Judit Varga as a witness, a chief prosecutor said on Thursday. Peter Magyar, 43, a lawyer formerly close to the government who plans to launch a new party to challenge Prime Minister Viktor Orban, on Tuesday published a recording of a conversation with Varga, then his wife and Hungary's justice minister, in which she detailed an alleged attempt by aides to Orban's cabinet chief to alter documents in the case.
