Liliana Szilágyi heartbreaking thoughts published on wednesday I’ll take it with me in the show. He talked about the fact that his father, the former Olympian swimmer, Zoltán Szilágyi, abused him, his mother and his sister regularly and in many ways. She said her mother even when she was pregnant with her.
After that, on Thursday, Zoltán Szilágyi in an open letter said:
„Dear Liliana! For six years you have been doing to me what you have been doing, I have endured it in silence so far. Now that you’ve mixed up your sister, and all of this in front of the general public, I have to speak for the first and last time – as well as in public. After that, I do not want to defend or explain in the press, because what you are saying cannot be defended, because how can I prove that I have never beaten or abused you, your mother or your sister? will be clarified. “
The president of the Hungarian Swimming Association, Sándor Wladár, immediately ordered the disciplinary committee and the child protection committee of the MÚSZ to launch an investigation on the basis of what was shared by the Olympic champion of the youth, Liliana Szilágyi.
As I have stated several times since my election: there is no place for abuse in the swimming pool. We also want to investigate this matter as thoroughly as possible so that a responsible decision can be made in the end. My first reaction was shock, by the way, and the next was to reaffirm my determination: it is not enough to maintain clean conditions in the present of the sport, exploring the past can lead to cleansing.
Said Sándor Wladár.
After that, Liliána Szilágyi’s brother spoke on the matter. Gerda Szilágyi. The letter sent to our editorial office will be published below without change.
Dear stakeholders!
First of all, Dear Wladar!
For your statement issued on December 30, 2021, I would like to point out that I live, I feel good and we have closed the year with great results, both the association, Stamina TK and myself.
Between November 11 and 14, 2021, I finished the National Adult Championship and the entire year with two gold medals, breaking my individual peaks.
I find it outrageous that the president of the Hungarian Swimming Association does not know or may not want to know about these. As he said in his statement, he doesn’t know where I have been for months.
I would also like to point out that the President has never, for whatever reason, been looking for me, he does not even know who I am, I think this is because he has walked by me in the swimming pool several times without saying goodbye. That’s why I don’t even understand how he dares to interfere in my family life without knowing me and the environment in which I grew up and as a result I bring better-than-good results.
Beyond these, I also find it outrageous that, as a leader, he is the first person in the swimming association to constantly pursue expulsion tactics and portray both my father and my person in a bad light. Contrary to what she and Liliana Szilágyi claim, my father never abused, nor did Liliana Szilágyi. I dare say this because I have been a member of this family since I was born in 2003, where I lived with them. I was already very much conscious in the period, and if these things had happened, I would have been aware of them.
My father never wanted us to be swimmers. He has always kept in mind that our dreams and goals will come true.
Among other things, he never wanted to be on the scales, weigh, or eat restricted. His saying is: eat normally because you need energy to do your daily tasks.
I ask the T. Association to support our small association as the team performs cheerfully, cheerfully, both in the pool and in private life. Ten members of our association go to a higher education institution, which I think is a miracle within Hungarian swimming sports. I would also like to ask Mr. Sándor T. Wladár, in view of me (I have been a multiple adult Hungarian champion since I was 16), to let us prepare for our competitions, don’t try to dismantle our team, of which my dad is a very important part. The horrors that Liliana Szilágyi claims are lies, she knows that very well. When he performed superbly, I dreamed every day that I wanted to receive the same undivided attention. Six years since I was with my father, which was my decision, I had a lot of positive experiences. If allowed, give a few examples I would also list. I graduated with excellent results, I managed to get into the university of my dreams, and I am a national top champion in sports and a three-time adult Hungarian champion. I finished sixth in the Junior World Cup and fifth in the Junior World Cup, otherwise I am balanced (as much as an eighteen-year-old can). All this so that for many years my Father has been educating me alone, fulfilling his strength, giving me all the financial and non-financial support.
I would like to signal the above results to the president of MÚSZ, who, as I mentioned, does not even know that I am a swimmer, which was also clear to me from his statements. The question arises in me as to if the President is unaware of my athletic performance, where could I have obtained information about my family life. Maybe through sources who haven’t been part of our family for many years and don’t participate in my life?
Mr Wladár is not known to be a member of my family, so please refrain from classifying my family, because otherwise I will take legal action – as I am already studying law.
I find it so outrageous that the president of MÚSZ has interfered in my family life to such an extent. It is constantly expiring for both my father and my person.
The question also arises in me that Sándor Wladár, who made a derogatory statement about a former swimmer, who also made public how he dares to rate anyone after that, is a well-respected man, who in this case is none other than my father.
I also find my father’s expulsion campaign, his character murder, outrageous because he did nothing but give in private and swimming (unlike many who just lose). Statements that denigrate my father’s personality and acts against him will greatly damage both my person and my vision. Yesterday’s statement by Mr Sándor Wladár, in which he mentioned the ongoing proceedings against my father,it is misleading, contains half-information, and does not reflect the full reality as it is by the way, the series of events that has existed since Wednesday is not the same. So t. I would also like to draw your attention to the observance of the rules on data processing and privacy. I am afraid the Swimming Association will still take revenge against me after that, but I felt I had to speak up for my peace of mind.
I would like Mr President to actually represent the interests of Hungarian swimming, as swimming does not consist of the person of the President, but of the hard work of the associations, teams and their helpers.
I would thank you if everyone would take this statement seriously or try to explain things that are not true. I dare to describe all this because, as I mentioned earlier, one of my greatest prides is that I am preparing to be a lawyer myself.
Their closing chords are so far away from my father and Stamina TK, not Statika or Staminé TK, as hitherto. Mr. President called our association, not once.
