Andrew Tate: ‘I’ve done nothing wrong’

Andrew Tate has claimed “I’ve done nothing wrong” after a judge in Romania lifted his house arrest pending trial.

The controversial influencer has been held in Romania charged with human trafficking, rape and forming an organised crime group.

He was indicted in June, along with his brother Tristan and two Romanian female suspects, and has been under house arrest since March.

But the Bucharest Court of Appeal announced in a written ruling on Friday that the house arrest will be replaced with a “judicial control” until the start of October.

The pair will be limited to travel within Bucharest and the surrounding Ilfov County.

Speaking outside his home in Bucharest following the ruling, Tate said: “We’ve been completely innocent since the beginning of this, and I have to give absolute faith to the Romanian judicial system for finally making the right decision and letting us free.

“I’m sure in the end we will be absolutely exonerated. I’ve done nothing wrong, God knows I’ve done nothing wrong, in my heart, I know I’ve done nothing wrong.

“I look forward to being completely exonerated in due time.”

A spokesperson for the Tate brothers said: “We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the Romanian judicial system for their fair consideration.

“This positive outcome gives us confidence that more favourable developments are on the horizon and the truth is beginning to prevail.”

In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Tate added: “After 10 months – three in jail, seven at home.

“After €15m of asset seizures. After an indictment based on nothing. The file was passed to a judge, who has ruled it weak and circumstantial.

“I have been released from house arrest, but must remain within Romania.”
