IN FULL:
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in the United Kingdom has confirmed it has authorised 21 charges against Andrew and Tristan Tate, including allegations of rape, actual bodily harm, and human trafficking.
The charges were authorised before an extradition warrant was issued to bring the brothers back to Britain from Romania, where they are currently under investigation on similar allegations. The CPS noted that Romanian legal proceedings must be resolved before any extradition can take place.
Andrew Tate, 38, a former kickboxer and online influencer, faces 10 charges linked to three alleged victims. These charges include rape, human trafficking, actual bodily harm, and controlling prostitution for financial gain. His brother, Tristan Tate, 36, faces 11 charges connected to one alleged victim, including similar offences.
Both brothers, born in the United States, moved to Luton, England, with their mother following their parents’ divorce.
In a statement, the CPS said, “The domestic criminal matters in Romania must be settled first,” indicating that any British proceedings would depend on the resolution of the ongoing investigations abroad. The Tate brothers have denied all allegations against them.
