Forgotten prisoner returns home after 20 years in Russia
Andras Tamas, 75, long kept in a Russian psychiatric hospital since 1947, arrived in Budapest by air with doctors and staff after a decades long mystery. Hospital staff previously misread his Hungarian speech as gibberish, and his release followed a Soviet-era identification of his ethnicity by a Hungarian-descended police major. The return to Hungary includes a two month stay at a national institute and possible adoption offers from Hungarian families.
