Andrew Tate Arrested and Detained in Romania
Tate and his brother, Tristan, were detained last evening for 24 hours after UK authorities issued arrest warrants accusing them of sexual aggression and exploiting people in Great Britain from 2012 to 2015
Their spokesperson, Mateea Petrescu, categorically denied the accusations to the Associated Press, saying the Tate’s “express profound disappointment that such serious allegations are being resurrected without substantial new evidence.”
Four women complained to UK authorities, claiming the Tates physically and sexually abused them. But prosecutors declined to move forward with the cases, prompting the accusers to pursue civil litigation against the brothers as a last resort to hold them accountable.
The Bucharest Court of Appeal is expected to make a decision Tuesday on whether to execute the arrest warrants, carrying out the orders issued by the UK’s Westminster Magistrates Court in London while the brothers are detained.
In a separate case, the Tates were indicted in Romania last year for rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.
