Andrew Tate has been detained in Romania after an arrest warrant was issued by UK authorities in relation to charges including “sexual aggression”, his representative has said.
The social media influencer, 37, and his brother Tristan Tate, 35, face charges dating to 2012-15, according to a statement.
I thought this guy was already in prison...
I think I remember reading he was basically released awaiting trial. I had honestly given up on seeing any justice in this case, so this is a positive development.
It’s a prison tour.

The UK now? Splendid. It was otherwise not a great day for me but things are looking up.
Hopefully this is just a harbinger for the rest of the day.
"First officer's log, supplemental. It was only 9 am and I already had to get out my trombone. Also, those twins in Stellar Cartography promised to stop by my quarters later. Things are looking up for Commander Riker! And also little Ensign Riker, if you know what I mean, computer."
Riker would 100% have already promoted his dick to at least lieutenant
He's modest.
Since when?
Ahhhhh it's been a while since I saw one of these :)
First the IL-76 plane crashes in Russia, then the Russian liberation force destroys a couple of BMPs inside of Russia and occupy a town and now this? What a wonderful day, thank you Universe.
Elon must be big mad today.
Don't unnecessarily remind me that that shitstain exists.
Womp womp.
While also woop woop
What color is YOUR prison jump suit?
Hahahahahahahahahahah
I’m curious about the specific charges facing these assholes. What is the legal definition of “sexual aggression?” I don’t see aggression defined in the UK’s sexual assault laws. Is that a Romanian thing?
My guess is a mistranslation of "sexual assault" going from English to Romanian and back.
That would make sense. That’s not a word that shows up in UK law from what I can tell, but the press are all over it. When you search for the term, you get a billion Andre Tate stories, and no much else.
Seems like a bad translation, then lazy journalism maybe?

Good for him. Prisons are filled with Alpha Males, not betas or stupid women.
If you look at the study that proposed Alpha males in wolf population, it only occurred when studying wolves in captivity. They do not occur in nature.
So the only way to become Alpha male is to get incarcerated.
Glad they have been arrested.
Not news.... Please, stop making stupid people famous. Or at least, stop writing about them...
They're stupid, but also dangerously influential. They're important people to keep an eye on. This is news.
Who exactly do they influence?
He’s targeted young men with his message of materialism and misogyny.

According to an article or two, social media deliberately sends material created by these "influencers" to teenagers. So, to answer your question, teenagers.

Definitely news. This also sends a message to other people trying to mimic them.
Plus it's not only news. It's good news.
The fact that they're getting arrested is great news imo
I had never heard of this dude before he was arrested. But do you know who had? My thirteen year old daughter. I'm cool with the current turn of events.
While I agree and also complain about this, I draw the exception at reporting when justice is being served. Good god, what a way to start the day!
I won't write about you
Sexual aggression is illegal in the UK? That sounds pretty boring, ngl.
Okay rapist.
Sexual aggression =/= aggressive sex.
