Romanian Prosecutors Indict Andrew Tate for Trafficking Minors, Money Laundering

The case was widened after a court returned the original file, and prosecutors say the brothers and two Romanian nationals face multiple related offenses.

  • On Friday, Romanian Prosecutors indicted Andrew Tate for trafficking minors, money laundering, sex with a minor, and witness tampering, while Tristan Tate faces complicity charges in the years-long investigation.
  • The Bucharest Court and Appeal returned the original case file to DIICOT in late 2024, finding it flawed; Prosecutors subsequently expanded the investigation and brought additional charges to address procedural defects.
  • Prosecutors allege the brothers laundered almost 3 million euros earned from human trafficking via two companies between 2018 and 2022; the expanded investigation also includes allegations Andrew Tate sexually exploited a woman in 2017.
  • Both brothers currently remain in the United States, contesting extradition to the United Kingdom, where British authorities have brought nearly 60 charges including rape, human trafficking, and sexual exploitation.
  • The Tate brothers have consistently denied wrongdoing, describing the cases as unfounded and politically motivated; judicial sources indicate some allegations were separated to avoid statutory limitation risks.
