Romanian authorities launched a raid on the home of controversial influencer Andrew Tate, who is awaiting trial over human trafficking and rape charges, as part of a new investigation, officials said.
One of the world’s best-known influencers known for misogynist and sometimes violent maxims, Andrew Tate has been accused of having formed an organised criminal network in early 2021 in Romania and Britain, along with his brother Tristan.
They have denied the charges, and a trial date has not yet been set.
Prosecutors allege that 37-year-old Tate, his 36-year-old brother and two women set up a criminal organisation and sexually exploited several victims.
Early this morning, officers ‘conducted a raid on August 21, 2024, at the residence of the Tate brothers as part of a search related to a new investigation,’ prosecutors said in a statement.
The office for organised crime (DIICOT), said that four search warrants were executed, in connection with ‘the crimes of forming an organised criminal group, trafficking in minors’, ‘sexual relations with a minor’ and ‘money laundering’.
The statement read: ‘Today, the prosecutors of the Directorate for the Investigation of Organized Crime and Terrorism – Central Structure together with police officers from the Ilfov Organized Crime Service have implemented 4 home search warrants within the Ilfov county and the Bucharest municipality, in – a criminal case regarding the commission of the crimes of forming an organized criminal group, trafficking in minors, trafficking in persons, sexual intercourse with a minor, influencing statements and money laundering.
