Internet influencer Andrew Tate has been detained in Romania and served with an arrest warrant issued by UK authorities, his spokeswoman, Matea Petrescu, said.
She said Andrew and his brother Tristan Tate were taken into custody Monday night on charges of sexual assault in a British case that took place between 2012 and 2015.
Petrescu stated that the Court of Appeal in Bucharest is ready to make an important decision on Tuesday on whether to implement arrest warrants issued by the Westminster Magistrates' Court in Great Britain, AP reported.
Tate was charged in a separate case in Romania with rape, human trafficking and the creation of a criminal group to sexually exploit women.
In connection with the case in Romania, he was arrested near Bucharest in December 2022, together with his brother Tristan and two Romanian women.
Romanian prosecutors filed charges against the four in June. All the defendants denied the charges.
