The brothers, former kickboxers who have U.S. and British nationality, are the highest profile suspects to be sent to trial for human trafficking in Romania. "Im sure this case has absolutely nothing to do with stealing my wealth," Andrew Tate said on his Twitter account. Prosecutors have said the Tate brothers recruited their victims by seducing them and falsely claiming to want a relationship or marriage.

BUCHAREST, June 13(Reuters) - Romanian prosecutors said on Tuesday that social media influencer Andrew Tate, his brother Tristan and two other suspects were being investigated for human trafficking in continued form, saying it was a more serious crime than separate counts of trafficking. The Tate brothers and two Romanian female suspects are under house arrest pending a criminal investigation for suspected human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women, accusations they have denied. Under Romanian legislation, prosecutors have filed charges against the four suspects, but the case is under investigation and has not yet gone to trial. On Tuesday, Romania's DIICOT anti-organised crime prosecuting unit notified the Tate brothers that the human trafficking charge had changed to trafficking in continued form, a DIICOT spokesperson said. Also on Tuesday, DIICOT prosecutors said they had opened a separate criminal investigation against a Romanian man close to the Tate brothers on allegations of human trafficking and forming a criminal crime group to sexually exploit seven women.

Inquam Photos/Octav Ganea via REUTERSBUCHAREST, March 31 (Reuters) - Social media personality Andrew Tate will be moved to house arrest on Friday evening after a Romanian court overturned prosecutors' request to keep him in police custody until late April, his lawyer said on Friday. Earlier this week, the same Bucharest court of appeals denied the Tate brothers' request to be released on bail. In previous rulings that extended their stay in police custody, judges have said the Tate brothers posed a flight risk and that their release could jeopardise the investigation. Prosecutors have said the Tate brothers recruited their alleged victims by seducing them and falsely claiming to want a relationship or marriage.
Romanian authorities descended on a compound near Bucharest on Saturday to tow away a fleet of luxury cars and other assets worth an estimated $3.9 million in the case investigating Andrew Tate, the divisive social media personality who is detained in the country on charges of human trafficking. Romania’s National Agency for the Administration of Unavailable Assets said in a statement that it removed a total of 15 luxury cars, 14 designer watches and cash in several currencies. About a half-dozen masked law enforcement officers and other officials descended on the compound Saturday to take away the goods.

BUCHAREST, Romania — Romania’s anti-organized crime agency has carried out seven additional house searches in its investigation into divisive social media influencer Andrew Tate, an official said Thursday. His brother, Tristan, and two Romanian women were also arrested. On Tuesday, a court upheld a judge’s Dec. 30 move to extend their arrest from 24 hours to 30 days. More than 10 properties and land owned by companies registered to the Tate brothers have also been seized so far. DIICOT says it has identified six victims in the human trafficking case who were subjected to “acts of physical violence and mental coercion” and were sexually exploited by the members of the alleged crime group.
BUCHAREST, Romania — A court in Romania’s capital Bucharest has upheld the 30-day arrest of divisive social media personality and self-described misogynist Andrew Tate on charges of organized crime, human trafficking and rape, an official said late Tuesday. Ramona Bolla, a spokesperson for Romanian anti-organized crime agency DIICOT, said the court rejected an appeal by Tate against a judge’s earlier decision to extend his arrest from 24 hours to 30 days. Tate, 36, a British-U.S. citizen who has 4.5 million followers on Twitter, was initially detained on Dec. 29 for 24 hours along with his brother Tristan, who was charged in the same case. The court late Tuesday rejected all four appeals against a judge’s Dec. 30 decision to grant prosecutors’ request to extend the arrest period. The week of his arrest, he traded insults on Twitter with teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg.

The divisive social media personality Andrew Tate arrived at a court in Romania in handcuffs on Tuesday morning to appeal against a judge’s earlier decision to extend his arrest period from 24 hours to 30 days on charges of being part of an organized crime group, human trafficking and rape. All four of them immediately challenged the arrest extension that was granted to prosecutors on Dec. 30. If the court overturns the extension, the defendants could be put under house arrest or similar conditions such as being banned from leaving Romania. Since Tate’s arrest, a series of ambiguous posts have appeared on his Twitter account, each of which garners widespread media attention. One, posted on Sunday and accompanied by a local report suggesting he or his brother have required medical care since their detention, reads: “The Matrix has attacked me.
BUCHAREST, Jan 10 (Reuters) - A Romanian court is due to rule on Tuesday on a challenge filed by Andrew Tate, an internet personality notorious for hate speech, against his 30-day arrest for alleged human trafficking and formation of an organised crime group to exploit six women. Tate, his brother Tristan and two Romanian female suspects were detained by Romanian anti-organised crime prosecutors on Dec. 29 pending a criminal investigation. Prosecutors have said the Tate brothers recruited their victims by seducing them and falsely claiming to want a relationship. Should the court uphold the arrest warrant and the investigation need more time, prosecutors can seek approval for further extensions of up to 180 days of detention under Romanian law. Tate said, adding his business started with two girlfriends and peaked with 75 women working for him and earning $600,000 a month.
Claims that the pizza boxes in a video posted by ex-kickboxer Andrew Tate led to his and his brother arrest in December have been widely shared online. Social media users claimed the divisive internet character “gave away his location” with the pizza boxes in his clip. For roughly half of the rest of the clip, the brand, and a website address for a Romanian pizza restaurant printed on the boxes were viewable in the shot. However, there is no publicly-available evidence that Tate’s arrest was made as a result of the pizza boxes. There is no publicly-available evidence that the pizza boxes in a video published by Andrew Tate revealed his location to the Romanian police.
On Tuesday, Tate tweeted at Thunberg, referring to his “33 cars” and their “enormous emissions.”Thunberg responded on Wednesday, making a joke about Tate’s genitals. After Tate’s arrest, posts quickly went viral, speculating that the pizza boxes in the video had been an important factor in locating Tate. But Ramona Bolla, a spokesperson for DIICOT, refuted that the pizza boxes had anything to do with Tate’s arrest. On Twitter, many responded to Tate’s days-old Twitter feud with Thunberg with jokes about the interaction and Tate’s arrest. In the video, Afualo said she saw the news about Tate’s arrest.
Video showing Andrew and Tristan Tate walking out of the headquarters of Romania’s Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) dates back to at least April 12, 2022. Pointing to a recent report by Romanian outlet Digi 24 about the brothers’ arrest on Dec. 29, which included undated b-roll footage, social media users falsely claimed that the ex-kickboxer and his brother were no longer detained. Examples of users misrepresenting the footage in the newscast are viewable on Twitter (here) and Facebook (here). “Andrew and Tristan Tate were NOT released tonight,” Constantin wrote via email on Dec. 30.

Grupul infracțional a fost sprijinit de către un agent de poliție care îi asigura protecție, inclusiv ca antemergător, în cazul unor transporturi de cantități mai mari de țigarete. Liderul grupului, un cetățean ucrainean, a procurat țigarete de contrabandă la comanda membrilor grupării, informează Digi24. El ducea țigaretele în România, ascunse în paleți cu peleți și material lemnos importați de pe teritoriul Ucrainei. Ulterior, țigaretele erau comercializate către ceilalți membri ai grupării care le distribuiau unor persoane terțe.

Procurorul-şef adjunct al DIICOT, Oana Pâţu, a precizat, într-o declarație de presă, că drogurile au o puritate înaltă. Anchetatorii spun că până acum au fost depistați 9 membri ai grupării, printre care și liderul acesteia. Marfa legală ar fi fost folosită pentru a ascunde drogurile sau pentru a justifica deplasarea camioanelor între facilitățile sale. Procurorii spun că toate aceste acțiuni au fost menite să inducă în eroare autoritățile și să îngreuneze orice potențială investigație. Pâțu a afirmat că ancheta a confirmat folosirea de rute alternative pentru aducerea drogurilor în Europa, inclusiv a Portului Constanţa.

Уголовное дело, по которому преследуется отстраненный от должности глава Антикоррупционной прокуратуры (PA) Виорел Морарь, не будет передано из суда Кишинева в другой суд такой же степени. Верховный суд отклонил ходатайство адвоката Иона Крецу от имени Вячеслава Платона, передает tv8.md. Жалобу Плахотнюка в штаб Антикоррупционной прокуратуры принес глава специализированной прокуратуры, но забыл подать ее до марта 2017 года. Получив полномочия на осуществление уголовного преследования, глава антикоррупционной прокуратуры лично подписал распоряжение о формировании группы уголовного преследования, поставив печать на соответствующей документ. Основная цель этих действий — заинтересованность бывшего главы Антикоррупционной прокуратуры в сохранении политической и защитной поддержки со стороны лидера Демократической партии, с которой он лично встречался.

Судьи Апелляционной палаты пояснили, что они не могут осудить его без аудиозаписей разговоров. Оправдательное решение продемонстрировало, как преступные группы используют решения Конституционного суда, которые оставляют прокуроров без доказательств по делам об организованной преступности. Решение Конституционного судаНику Патрон использовал решение Конституционного суда от февраля 2020 года, которое большинством голосов (7 против 2) запретило прокурорам использовать в качестве доказательств в уголовном судопроизводстве записи, полученные SRI на основании ордера национальной безопасности (MSN) о сборе информации. По сути, Конституционный суд Румынии указывает, что порядок оспаривания законности этих доказательств, полученных и использованных прокуратурой в уголовных делах, не совсем ясен.

Румыны и молдаване причастны к одной из крупнейших сетей контрабанды в Европе: по данным Европейского бюро по борьбе с мошенничеством, за последние годы организованная преступная группировка произвела сигареты на сумму 80 миллионов евро. Несколько контрабандистов, работающих в Румынии, были задержаны Управлением по расследованию организованной преступности и терроризма Румынии (DIICOT): их обвиняют в поставках товаров на нелегальные сигаретные фабрики, созданные в нескольких европейских странах. Они начали проводить расследования и вскоре обнаружили, что имеют дело с международной сетью организованной преступности, в которую также входят граждане Румынии и Молдовы. «Члены группы открыли подпольные фабрики по производству и упаковке сигарет в нескольких государствах-членах Европейского Союза. — Европейским бюро по борьбе с мошенничеством), ущерб, причиненный деятельностью трансграничной группы, составляет 80 млн евро«, — заявила комиссар Георгиана Теодореску, офицер пограничной полиции Румынии.

În luna mai a anului trecut, polițiștii de frontieră din România au găsit mai multe materiale folosite în fabricarea țigărilor, ceea ce le-a trezit suspiciuni. Au început să facă cercetări și au descoperit la scurt timp că au de a face cu o rețea internațională de crimă organizată din care fac parte și cetățeni români și moldoveni. Materialele erau cumpărate din Ucraina şi Republica Moldova şi apoi transportate în baza unor documente false în ţările unde erau ambalate ţigările: Ungaria, Italia sau Spania. Pentru a aduna cât mai multe probe, poliţiştii şi procurorii DIICOT au făcut 40 de percheziţii în 11 judeţe. În paralel, au fost verificări şi în Ungaria şi Italia, unde poliţiştii au găsit mai multe fabrici ilegale de ţigări.
