BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate made a dramatic appearance at a Romanian court as they faced grave accusations of rape, human trafficking, and orchestrating a criminal network aimed at exploiting women. Notably, the siblings were accompanied by a formidable entourage of six bodyguards, adding an air of intrigue to the already gripping scene.
As the proceedings commenced, all eyes were fixed on Andrew, whose online persona had garnered considerable attention and criticism. The gravity of the accusations, coupled with the notorious nature of the Tate brothers, ensured that the courtroom atmosphere was charged with anticipation. Since March, the Tate brothers have remained confined to their residence under house arrest, their movements restricted and their actions closely monitored.
'They categorically don’t want to remain under house arrest'
Despite the gravity of the charges brought against them on June 20, the pair appeared in high spirits as they smiled and waved. Two Romanian women have also been charged by prosecutors in connection with the case. Tate has been residing in Romania since 2017. The former professional kickboxer has consistently asserted that Romanian prosecutors lack any evidence and has accused the case of being a political conspiracy aimed at silencing him.
The reporters outside the court went on to assert their question on Andrew, "How much money have you made from trafficking women?” Tate immediately snapped at them by saying, "Zero.”
“They categorically don’t want to remain under house arrest,” stated their lawyer, Ioan Gliga, to the reporters. He further emphasized that such a measure is "unjustified" in their case.
'Don’t ask me stupid questions'
Furthermore, the reporters proceeded to inquire about Andrew's personal beliefs, prompting him to respond. Tate responded by saying that he believes in god and the justice system that will not prove him wrong. He stated, "In God and I believe in the justice system, and we are going to be OK.” When a reporter questioned Andrew Tate about whether he was a rapist, he replied, “Of course not, don’t ask me stupid questions.”
While leaving the courthouse Tate addressed the media, saying, "I would like to say a massive ‘Thank you’ to all the supporters we have around the world. Regardless of what the mainstream media keep saying and the lies they’re trying to report, we get tens of thousands of messages from people every single day supporting us, and they understand that we’re not the first affluent, wealthy men who have been unfairly attacked.”
The court is scheduled to deliver its verdict on June 23, and the commencement date for their trial remains uncertain. Tate's spokesperson, Mateea Petrescu, stated on Tuesday that the brothers are ready to “demonstrate their innocence and vindicate their reputation." Petrescu stated, “Tate’s legal team are prepared to cooperate fully with the appropriate authorities, presenting all necessary evidence to exonerate the brothers and expose any misinterpretations or false accusations."
'Top g is back'
Numerous fans closely examined the ongoing situation and expressed their viewpoints. One user wrote, "Why @TateTheTalisman gotta walk like a boss in GTA. ??? #freetate." Another user wrote, "He literally answers their question and says 0 zero. Since it’s not the answer they want they keep asking it. ?♂️?." One user stated, "Glad he cut his hair , top g is back."
