Romania approves UK extradition request for influencer Andrew Tate. Tate and his brother Tristan were taken into custody last night over allegations of sexual assault dating back to 2012-2015.

The arrest warrant was issued by Westminster Magistrates Court. Tate, who gained millions of fans by promoting an ultra-masculine lifestyle, was indicted in June in Romania along with his brother and two Romanian women for human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to exploit women sexually. The decision has not yet been made, as the Romanian courts are clogged.
