Information acquired by hirado.hu showed that the man known as Hassan F had received a prepaid bank card with 500 euros.

The man tried to avoid detention, claiming that he had ties to the secret services, the website said.

During a court hearing, he said he was an agent of the Greek secret services and was in charge of identifying Jihadists who had arrived in Europe.

János Hajdu, director of counter terrorism centre TEK, told M1 that the man had made many claims in an attempt to avoid justice.

All the information is now being checked with the help of international partners where necessary, he added.

The man’s lawyer, László Kelen, told the channel that his client had received the bank card with 500 euros in Greece and it was only valid there.
