Masked police officers in Romania have carried out fresh raids at the home of internet influencer Andrew Tate, who is awaiting trial on charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Masked police officers in Romania carried out fresh raids early Wednesday at the home of divisive internet influencer Andrew Tate, who is awaiting trial on charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

Romania’s anti-organized crime agency, DIICOT, said it was searching four homes in the counties of Bucharest and nearby Ilfov, investigating allegations of human trafficking, the trafficking of minors, sexual intercourse with a minor, influencing statements and money laundering. The agency added that hearings will later be held at its headquarters.

Tate’s spokesperson, Mateea Petrescu, said in response to the raids that “although the charges in the search warrant are not yet fully clarified, they include suspicions of human trafficking and money laundering” and added that his legal team is present. Petrescu did not address the allegations involving minors.

    they made the mistake of insulting or ridiculing someone of the local power structure, because they are culuturally tone deaf. and those guys cant let that slide, because its their reputation that is on the line.

    they dont care about what they find at all. its all a huge show so everybody can see what happens if you talk to much smack in someone elses domain.

    its a powermove.

    if they had managed to make amends to the local hustleculture, they wouldnt have this kind of problem in the first place.

    but they didnt show respect, and thats it.

    you all watched all these mafia movies, and dont see the sings i n real life???

    so, tace care: if they DONT find something, the tatebrothers will STILL be in jail or house detention.

    or they will find something, because they will plant it.

    someday, they will just let them of the hook without warning or explanation, just to humiliate them.

    “you are so unimportantant that i can ignore you know, you bore me.”

    this will be the day andrew tate has been broken, spiritually. he talked to much strong alpha guy shit and some real man decided to teach him a lesson. its plain as day.
