It is a veteran's group, but it does have connections to the long-deposed fascist regime of Miklos Horthy. Horthy may not have been the worst of fascist dictators (the Nazis found him excessively indecisive about persecuting and deporting the Jews, and set up their own puppets for that insidious purpose). The group was outlawed in accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty as a fascistic organization -- and although the group claims to blame Communists for its illegal status in Hungary, the group remains illicit in Hungary nearly thirty years after the fall of Communism in Hungary. It is likely illegal for very good reason.
Yes, the Communists outlawed the Boy Scouts and many Catholic organizations, but those have been reinstated. This group may not be as vile as the monstrous Arrow Cross, but like the Iron Guard of Romania, the Ustase in Croatia, and the Fascist Party in Italy, let alone Nazi groups just about everywhere in what had been Nazi Germany and occupied or satellite countries, it remains proscribed.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
