Court decision for detention of ex-boxer Tate

By Kristina Sobol

Budrigannews.com – A challenge filed by internet personality Andrew Tate against his 30-day arrest for alleged human trafficking and formation of an organized crime group to exploit six women is scheduled to be decided on Tuesday by a Romanian court.

On December 29, Romanian anti-organised crime prosecutors detained Tate, his brother Tristan, and two Romanian female suspects in anticipation of a criminal investigation. Through an attorney, they have denied wrongdoing and challenged the arrest warrant.

The Tate brothers, according to the prosecution, tricked their victims into thinking they wanted a relationship by seducing them.

Prosecutors say that the victims were taken to homes on the outskirts of Bucharest, where they were subjected to physical and mental intimidation and forced to produce pornographic content for social media sites, which led to significant financial gains.

Additionally, according to the prosecution, one of the brothers allegedly raped one of the victims in March of last year, when the investigation began.

In the written record authorizing the arrest, the court judge stated, “The possibility that the suspects would evade investigation, leave Romania and settle in countries that do not allow extradition given their financial possibilities and public comments to that regard cannot be ignored.”

Ramona Bolla, a spokesperson for the Romanian anti-organized crime unit DIICOT, told Reuters that prosecutors have seized 15 luxury vehicles and more than ten properties and homes belonging to the suspects in Bucharest, Prahova, and Brasov counties.

The purpose of the seizure was to stop the assets from being sold or hidden.

Under Romanian law, prosecutors can seek approval for further extensions of up to 180 days of detention if the court upholds the arrest warrant and the investigation requires additional time.

Tate was banned from all major social media platforms after gaining mainstream notoriety for his misogynistic remarks and hate speech. However, his account was reinstated in November after Elon Musk took over Twitter.

The former professional kickboxer, who is British and American, has said that men are the ones who raped women and that women are part of the problem. He claims to be a misogynist.

He said on a podcast last year that when he lived in London, he started making money by getting multiple girlfriends to video chat with him and share the profits.

“How can I make money by utilizing these women?” Tate said, adding that his company started with two girlfriends and grew to 75 employees making $600,000 per month.

He has also stated that he moved to Romania following a British investigation into allegations of sexual assault that were ultimately dropped because he preferred living in countries where corruption was widespread.
