The Tate Brothers “will return to the UK” to respond to rape accusations after the procedures in Romania will be completed, says their lawyer

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate will return to the UK to defend themselves against the accusations that are made by British prosecutors, including rape and bodily injury, the lawyer representing the two brothers in the United Kingdom said on Thursday, reports News.ro.

“Some of the accusations made in Romania have been withdrawn by Romanian prosecutors. Once these procedures are completely concluded, the Tate brothers will return to cope with the accusations in the UK,” says lawyer Andrew Ford in a statement.

Andrew Tate, 38 years old, is facing 10 accusations in the UK, including rape, bodily injury, trafficking in people and supervision of prostitution in order to make a profit, in relation to three women.

His brother, Tristan Tate, 36 years old, is facing 11 accusations related to a woman, including rape, bodily injury and human trafficking, British prosecutors announced on Wednesday.

The accusations were authorized in January 2024, but the complete details were made only now.

Bedfordshire police issued an international arrest warrant on behalf of the two brothers in relation to the accusations, which they “categorically deny”. The facts would have taken place between 2012 and 2015.

The legal team of Andrew and Tristian Tate claims that there is “an enormous amount of erroneous information” regarding the accusations made to their customers, who, according to them, could affect their rights to a fair trial. The lawyers also accused the Prosecutor's Office of the Crown and the Police of refusing to “collaborate with us in any significant way.”

“In terms of fair processes, British prosecutors refuse to offer even the most basic information that allows our customers to understand the accusations they face. These are historical accusations, and our customers are not even told who are the supposed victims. Holborn Adams.

“The recent 'news” regarding the accusation of our customers are not actually news. The real position is that CPS (the service of the Royal Prosecutor's Office) has decided that this case fulfills the conditions to formulate the accusations in 2024. Recently, as the press would suggest.

“When the moment comes, we will defend ourselves firmly,” promises the legal representative.

The United Kingdom requires the extradition of the father's brothers

Tate brothers are accused of trafficking in minors, sexual relations with a minor and money laundering in Romania. They are also accused of trafficking in persons and an organized criminal group for the sexual exploitation of women in another case, which has been sent back to prosecutors.

For their part, the British prosecutors submitted to the Romanian authorities an application for extradition of the father's brothers, after the conclusion of the procedures in Romania.

Lawyer Matt Jury, from McCue Jury & Partners, who represent several alleged British victims of Andrew Tate, told Sky News: “We welcome the Crown Prosecutor's Office, who said that our authorities are making efforts to make the father brought before the justice here, in the UK – they cannot be allowed to escape. We ask CPS once again to recognize the mistake of not being prosecuted when he lived in the UK and finally accuse him of rape and aggression on the other three women, our clients, who have filed criminal complaints since 2014, but have been disappointed by the system.

The accusations that Matt Jury talk about were the subject of a police investigation in the UK that was closed in 2019.

Women have now filed a civil trial against Andrew Tate.

Referring to the procedure, Tate's lawyer stressed that the procedure is not criminal and that it was initiated to obtain compensation. He mentions that the trial in front of the High Court was “fixed to be tried in 2027” and that Andrew Tate “will be defended with rigor”.
