Andrew Tate arrested for human trafficking in Romania

And all because he lost his temper after being humiliated by Greta.

Such encouraging news! Hope there’s a dank oubliette ready for him.

Choccolatte · 30/12/2022 00:54

And Greta's tweet might make the top 10 liked tweets of all time!

What is the Twitter account?, I can't get it to load

It’s Esqueer_ and I’m blocked and suspect they are using a similar tool to H from Steps. I believe I am blocked for following people that have wrong opinions so I am contaminated based on suspicion (they’d be right) of wrong think 🤣

Twofurrycats · 30/12/2022 00:59

@Millytante fantastic use of oubliette. One of my favourite words

Weepachu · 30/12/2022 01:09

He’s a Grade A twat with definite SDE. Props to Greta for the sick burn.

I’m somehow not blocked by him (or H from steps)

One of the most all time epic burn and karma moments!
Go Greta!

Creeps like him never can just stfu. Spending over a day trying to get back at her and the dumbass ends up getting arrested.

I am wondering what else we're going to learn about him after his arrest...

Intransigentcat · 30/12/2022 01:37

Good. Hopefully he will be arrested, tried, sentenced to time in prison. Assaulted whilst there and told it's probably his own fault.

OnlyTheBravest · 30/12/2022 01:43

Could not have happened to a nicer twat guy.

oakleaffy · 30/12/2022 01:45

Never heard if him ( Don’t watch TV) but googled-
Sex trafficking ( alleged) is ghastly.
What an unpleasant man.

You can see his latest interview with Piers Morgan on YouTube. He comes off extremely badly, funny enough.

UnicornRidge · 30/12/2022 02:04

🎉 When asked the question on The Fellas Podcast, Andrew Tate said that he chose to live in Romania because "Western society is degraded [...] and more corrupt."

He moved to Romania thinking the police will not do anything. Well done Romanian police! 🎊

justinhawkinsnavalfluff · 30/12/2022 02:09

And I now love Greta just a little bit more....what a legend!

I'm blocked too
but with H it said I was blocked
with Esqueer it just said this person limits who can see their tweets, but it isn't private - I can see it when I log out.

why would this lady block me

anyway, timeline is really just pizza boxes, which suggests the police have been waiting for clues

I'm blocked too - glad it's not just me 😅 I have the honour of being blocked by H too, along with thirty squillion others. Pretty sure that I've encountered Esqueer_ before - I don't think they appreciate my preference for biology and science over feelings.

Never mind, I'll track down the story elsewhere unless someone wants to screenshot it for us poor blocked, wrong-thinking womenfolk..... 😘😅

There's not actually anything there

I'm really worried they'll find people trapped in the house.

@EmmaAgain22 - on the screen you're taken to, you probably see the message at the top that looks like the screenshot below? It says the account-holder limits who can view their tweets.

If you click on the profile name (which you can do from the replies below) you'll be taken to the front page of their profile which shows their pic and confirms you're blocked (second pic below).

Place making

Aussiegirl123456 · 30/12/2022 02:20

He (and his brother I think) was arrested in 2021 for this but not enough evidence at the time so they had to let him go. Seems as though more has been found.

UnicornRidge · 30/12/2022 02:20

"In 2017, Tate left the UK and moved to Bucharest in Romania, where he currently resides.

In a since-deleted YouTube video explaining the motivation behind his move, Tate admitted that "40% of the reason" was because of relaxed laws on sexual assault.

He said: “I’m not a rapist, but I like the idea of just being able to do what I want. I like being free."

In April 2022 his home was raided by Romanian police after the US embassy received a tip-off that a 21-year-old American woman was being held there against her will.

Tate was brought in for questioning alongside his brother but they were both later released and have denied any wrongdoing."

Is it that's it? He is can walk free without charges? Someone like him can be classified as a terrorist:

The Terrorism Act 2000 defines terrorism, both in and outside of the UK, as the use or threat of one or more of the actions listed below, and where they are designed to influence the government, or an international governmental organisation or to intimidate the public. The use or threat must also be for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, racial or ideological cause.

The specific actions included are:

serious violence against a person;
serious damage to property;
endangering a person's life (other than that of the person committing the action);
creating a serious risk to the health or safety of the public or a section of the public;

Well it is breaking news and some on Wikipedia like to ensure certain entries are up to date.
