Thomas Schmid will testify in the ÖVP U-Commission on 3 November. His lawyer confirms this, SPÖ MP Jan Krainer reported on Twitter on Monday.

In addition to corruption allegations, which mainly affect the ex-chancellor and foreign minister Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP), Schmid also charged real estate juggler René Benko, entrepreneur Siegfried Wolf or the chairman of the National Council and the chairman of the U-committee, Wolfgang. Sobotka, heavily burdened. (ÖVP).
