Incendiary influencer Andrew Tate, brother arrested on sex-trafficking allegations: report
Incendiary social media influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan were busted in Romania Thursday related to sex-trafficking allegations, according to a report.
Authorities detained the British citizens on kidnapping and rape charges, judicial sources told the Romanian outlet Libertatea.
The brothers had allegedly detained two young girls one with American citizenship and one Romanian inside the villa in April. They were reportedly found by police and claimed they were held by force.
The arrest take place after Tate filmed a video criticizing climate activist Greta Thunberg. The video included a pizza box from a national chain in Romania.

It gets even crazier. The Council of Europe through GRETA, the Group of Experts on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings, urged Romania last year to effectively prosecute human trafficking.
