I have got an information that föhadnagy Kiss Elemer (101./3) should shot down one Jakovlev Jak-9 nearby Brno. Is correct this information? And if it is true how many planes he shot during WW2?

Yes, AFAIK on 17 April 1945 the last air victory for Hungarian pilots was claimed by Föhadnagy (1st Lt.) Elemér Kiss, a Yak-9 over the Central Bohemian town of Milowitz (today Milovice). It was his sixth individual air victory.
Hungarian Bf 109Gs flew in the Brünn (Brno) area, in Bohemia, as late as 30 April 1945. That was the last known combat mission of the MKHL.
