Andrew Tate Arrested on Human Trafficking Charges

Social media influencer Andrew Tate, the self described King of Toxic Masculinity, was arrested on human trafficking charges in Romania after picking a fight with teen climate activist Greta Thunberg...

It all started after Tate, 36,  randomly Tweeted Greta, 19, to troll her about his massive fossil fuel guzzling car collection. 

Hello @GretaThunberg

I have 33 cars.

My Bugatti has a w16 8.0L quad turbo.

My TWO Ferrari 812 competizione have 6.5L v12s.

This is just the start.

Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions. pic.twitter.com/ehhOBDQyYU

But it was Tate's final response that allegedly tipped off Romanian officials that he was in the country because he showed his local pizza boxes.

Thank you for confirming via your email address that you have a small penis @GretaThunberg

The world was curious.

And I do agree you should get a life ❤️ https://t.co/mHmiKHjDGH pic.twitter.com/SMisajQRcf

From Sky News

Social media influencer Andrew Tate has been arrested in Romania on suspicion of human trafficking, rape and forming an organised crime group, prosecutors have confirmed.

The 36-year-old British-American and his brother Tristan were arrested on Thursday evening and are being detained for 24 hours alongside two Romanian suspects, prosecutors in the country said.

"The four suspects... appear to have created an organised crime group with the purpose of recruiting, housing and exploiting women by forcing them to create pornographic content meant to be seen on specialised websites for a cost," prosecutors said.

"They would have gained important sums of money."

The brothers, who have been under criminal investigation since April, have declined to comment, but their lawyer confirmed they had been detained.

On Friday, Romanian prosecutors asked a Bucharest court to extend Tate's detention by 30 days.

Prosecutors said six people had been identified who had been sexually exploited by the "organised criminal group".

They said victims were recruited by "British citizens misrepresenting their intention to enter into a marriage or cohabitation relationship and the existence of genuine feelings of love".

They were then taken to Romania's Ilfov county where "by exercising acts of physical violence and mental coercion - through intimidation, constant surveillance, control and invoking alleged debts - they were sexually exploited by group members by forcing them to perform demonstrations pornographic for the purpose of producing and disseminating through social media platforms material having such a character and by submitting to the execution of a forced labour".
