Masked police officers in Romania carried out fresh raids early Wednesday at the home of divisive internet influencer Andrew Tate, who is awaiting trial on charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

Romania’s anti-organized crime agency, DIICOT, said it was searching four homes in Bucharest and nearby Ilfov county, investigating allegations of human trafficking, the trafficking of minors, sexual intercourse with a minor, influencing statements and money laundering. The agency added that hearings will later be held at its headquarters.

      He keeps getting “caught”, put under house arrest, left to his own devices, charges dropped, and then “caught” again.

      Beginning to think they’re not actually going to sentence this guy

        According to the BBC, those charges are still ongoing.

        The Tate brothers have previously been charged with human trafficking - and Andrew Tate charged with rape - and are awaiting trial on those charges. They were released from house arrest a year ago and told not to leave Romania.

        They have always strongly denied any wrongdoing and deny the formal charges they face.

        According to a timeline put together by Glamour, those charges are still active.

        Tate is out on house arrest while awaiting trial.
