Andrew Tate claims he\u2019s being \u201cset up\u201d after houses raided by police Joseph D. McBride, Esq.\/XThe Tate brothers were the targets of house raids in Romania on Wednesday, following which Andrew Tate has claimed to press that he is being \u201cset up\u201d. On August 21, four homes were searched as part of DIICOT\u2019s, Romania\u2019s anti-organized crime agency, human trafficking investigation. This included Andrew Tate\u2019s home in Bucharest. Tate is currently awaiting trial on charges of human trafficking and rape. He and his brother Tristan have denied all the allegations against them. Following the raid, Andrew was placed under house arrest for 30 days, while his brother Tristan was placed under judicial control for 60 days, which requires him to appear before authorities regularly, the Bucharest court said in a statement. Speaking out about their house arrest, Andrew claimed that he\u2019s being \u201cset up\u201d. He started his speech to the press by saying that he\u2019d lived in Romania for 10 years and how he\u2019d spent those years promoting the country and its \u201cbeautiful people\u201d to the rest of the world to combat the country\u2019s bad reputation. He said: \u201cI\u2019ve been nice. I\u2019ve been patient. I\u2019ve played the game. I\u2019ve respected the judiciary. I\u2019ve gone to every appointment on time. But they busted my house again. And now come along saying there\u2019s thirty-five victims. You know, thirty of those girls have statements in our defense? \u201cThirty saying we\u2019ve done absolutely nothing wrong. Two more are the mothers of our children. And two more have never even been to Romania.\u201d He continued: \u201cThis is a set-up. It is absolutely disgusting. Thirty of those girls say we have done nothing wrong. Two are the mothers of our children, two have never even been here to Romania.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m not a human trafficker clearly\u2026 This is done on purpose and it is designed to come up with the most heinous possible crimes to slander our name.\u201d The brothers \u2013 along with two Romanian women \u2013 were initially arrested in 2022, and held in custody before being released on house arrest and were not allowed to leave Romania. On July 5, they were permitted to travel within the European Union. However, this decision was later overturned, meaning they must remain in Romania as they await trial. Under Romanian law, the Tate brothers could face jail sentences for as long as ten years for trafficking adults. The Tates have denied all accusations of human trafficking, rape, and sexual exploitation. However, they could face more time if they\u2019re found guilty of multiple crimes, particularly the rape charges. Rape in Romania can result in up to 18 years in jail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
