Andrew Tate has been detained in Romania after an arrest warrant was issued by UK authorities in relation to charges including “sexual aggression”, his representative has said.

The social media influencer, 37, and his brother Tristan Tate, 35, face charges dating to 2012-15, according to a statement.

    My guess is a mistranslation of “sexual assault” going from English to Romanian and back.

      That would make sense. That’s not a word that shows up in UK law from what I can tell, but the press are all over it. When you search for the term, you get a billion Andre Tate stories, and no much else.

      Seems like a bad translation, then lazy journalism maybe?
