kihallgatások

Kihallgatások refers to the practice of interrogations, typically conducted by law enforcement or judicial authorities. The purpose of a kihallgatás is to gather information from individuals regarding a crime, a potential crime, or any matter under investigation. This can involve questioning witnesses, victims, or suspects.

In a legal context, kihallgatások are a formal process governed by specific procedures and laws to ensure fairness and protect the rights of the individual being questioned. This often includes informing the person of their rights, such as the right to remain silent or the right to legal counsel. The information obtained during a kihallgatás can be used as evidence in legal proceedings.

The process can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the investigation. It may take place at a police station, a courthouse, or other designated locations. The interrogator aims to elicit truthful and accurate information, often by asking direct questions and observing the subject's responses. In some cases, kihallgatások may be recorded to ensure an accurate account of the proceedings. The term itself is of Hungarian origin, meaning "hearings" or "interrogations."
