Michael Turner (29) and Jason McGoldrick (38) are two hard working, tax paying, law abiding citizens of the UK. Neither have ever been in trouble with the police.

They have been extradited to Budapest to stand trial for fraud in Hungary.

They invested £100,000 in Hungary to set up a business in central Europes post socialist emerging markets. Due to difficult trading conditions the business folded, leaving creditor's to the sum of approximately 5.6 million Hungarian Forints (approx £18,000).  Five years later, the Hungarian authorities decided to turn these creditor's into `victims`.

When Michael and Jason invested  their time and money, Hungary was not even a member of the European community.

After joining and signing up to the 2003 European extradition treaty, they have issued a warrant for Michael and Jason to be extradited to Budapest accused of fraud.

The British justice system has rubber stamped this warrant even though it was not completed properly. They say they have to go along with it, because European politicians have directed them to fully co-operate and not to worry about details!

Michael and Jason's lawyers are convinced that in England it would be easy to show their innocence, but doubt that there is any chance of a fair trial in Hungary.

To date, having spent four months in a Hungarian KGB prison, Michael and Jason have never been charged with anything.

And what is the situation now? – The Hungarian police investigation continues…..
