Bucharest: <\/b><\/p>\n
Controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have been arrested in Romania over UK sex offence charges, police said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Romanian authorities said in a statement they executed “two European arrest warrants issued by the UK judicial authorities for the committing of sexual offences, of exploitation of persons on the territory of the UK”.<\/p>\n
A Bucharest court ordered they be held for 24 hours, police said.<\/p>\n
Tate — a self-described misogynist with a large online presence — is awaiting trial in Romania along with his brother \u00a0on separate charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal group to sexually exploit women.<\/p>\n
Tate’s spokesperson said in a statement on Tuesday that the pair was “under arrest”, adding that the warrants were “issued by (the) Westminster Magistrates Court”.<\/p>\n
In June 2023, lawyers for four women threatened Tate with a lawsuit in the English courts over allegations of sexual assault, serving the former kickboxer with legal papers by British law firm McCue Jury and Partners.<\/p>\n
The women, now in their late twenties and early thirties, say the offences took place between 2013-2016, when Tate was based in the UK.<\/p>\n
A statement from the UK law firm representing them said allegations “including violent rapes, serious physical assault, and controlling and coercive behaviour.”<\/p>\n
Tate’s spokesperson said that Andrew and Tristan Tate “unequivocally deny all allegations and decry what they perceive as an exploitative use of the legal system”.<\/p>\n
