Andrew Tate Released From House Arrest Ahead Of Human Trafficking Trial

The court ruled that it "replaces the measure of house arrest of the defendants... with the preventive measure of judicial control, for a period of 60 days, from 4 August 2023 to 2 October 2023".

A Romanian court Friday lifted a house arrest order on controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother as the men await trial on human trafficking charges. Tate -- a self-described misogynist with a large online presence -- has also been indicted on charges of rape and forming a criminal group to sexually exploit women.

The court ruled that it "replaces the measure of house arrest of the defendants... with the preventive measure of judicial control, for a period of 60 days, from 4 August 2023 to 2 October 2023".

Tate, his brother and two accomplices have to report to police and are not allowed to leave the wider Bucharest region without prior approval.
