The committee asked György Pálóczi-Horváth in connection with his earlier statement. Witness MMM was a lawyer in Budapest from 1939 onwards, and a member of the Smallholders' Party. He was arrested by the Hungarian political police and taken to the Soviet Union, then released in 1955. He gave an account of the events in Southern Hungary and Budapest during the revolution. The committee asked him about the Smallholders' Party, and then about his arrest, interrogation and trial.
