FILE - British-U.S. former professional kickboxer and controversial influencer Andrew Tate , and his brother Tristan Tate arrive handcuffed and escorted by police at a courthouse in Bucharest on Jan. 10, 2023, for a court hearing on their appeA court in Romania's capital Bucharest has upheld the 30-day arrest of divisive social media personality and self-described misogynist Andrew Tate on charges of organized crime, human trafficking and rape, an official said late Tuesday.
The court late Tuesday rejected all four appeals against a judge's Dec. 30 decision to grant prosecutors' request to extend the arrest period. A document explaining the judge’s reasoning said "the possibility of them evading investigations cannot be ignored," and that they could "leave Romania and settle in countries that do not allow extradition.
DIICOT said it had identified six victims in the trafficking case who were subjected to "acts of physical violence and mental coercion" and were sexually exploited by the members of the alleged crime group. After the appeals court upheld the arrest warrant extension, prosecutors can now request detentions of up to 180 days for the four people charged.
