Andrew Tate Detained In Romania Over UK Arrest Warrant

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have been detained in Romania after European arrest warrants were issued by the UK, his representative has said.

The allegations, including sexual aggression, cover 2012 to 2015, his team said.

The Tate brothers "categorically reject all charges", the statement said.

Romanian police said European arrest warrants for two men were issued by UK authorities for sexual offences on Monday.

The alleged offences also included exploiting people in Great Britain, the Romanian police statement said.

The two men were presented to the prosecutor attached to the Bucharest Court of Appeal, who ordered their detention for 24 hours, police said.

A representative for the controversial influencer said the court will make a decision on Tuesday morning as to whether to execute the warrant.

They described the arrest warrant as a "bewildering revival of decade-old accusations" leaving the brothers "dismayed and deeply troubled".

"They categorically reject all charges and express profound disappointment that such serious allegations are being resurrected without substantial new evidence," the statement said.

"They are fully committed to challenging these accusations with unwavering determination and resolve."

McCue Jury and Partners, the law firm representing four British women who have accused Mr Tate of sexual offences, said it wrote to British police as it was concerned Tate might try to leave Romania, where he is due to stand trial for rape and human trafficking.

"We wrote to the British police... to urge them to immediately seek a warrant for Tate's detention in Romania and extradition to the UK," the law firm said in a statement.

It added they were grateful British authorities had taken action.
