Parliament about to breach the European Convention on Human Rights and EU law

The Hungarian Helsinki Committee warned Hungarian MPs that the bill allowing 120-hour long  custody without judicial review, interrogations in the first 48 hours of detention without a defense counsel, and the withholding of information regarding the reasons for the arrest are measures contrary to the European Convention on Human Rights and new EU directives to be adopted in the near future.
