They were later restricted to the areas of Bucharest Municipality and nearby Ilfov County. The legal case in Romania is still being discussed in the preliminary chamber stages, a process in which the defendants can challenge prosecutors' evidence. The Bucharest Court of Appeals said in a statement that Mr. Tate and his younger brother, Tristan Tate, must stay in Romania under probation for 60 days while awaiting trial. The Tate brothers and two Romanian women were indicted in Romania in June on charges of engaging in human trafficking across Romania, Britain and the United States, of rape and of forming an organized criminal group in 2021.

"Today's news is very welcome as it had been a significant concern to many that Tate would seek to avoid justice in Romania and abroad," said Matthew Jury, a managing partner at the law firm. "We are grateful to the British authorities for taking our concerns seriously and issuing an arrest warrant. Tate is accused of serious criminal offenses against a large number of victims and he must be held accountable." "We handed over our evidence about the horrific acts of violence we endured and waited for action. But four years later we were told the U.K. authorities would not prosecute him," they state on their campaign page.

The brothers, who hold dual citizenship in Britain and the United States, have denied the allegations. Last month, the Bucharest Tribunal extended geographical restrictions against Tate, a former professional kickboxer, stipulating he cannot leave the country. Tate had requested that he be able to travel within the European Union with the prior approval of a judge. The 37-year-old influencer was arrested in December 2022 near the Romanian capital along with his brother and two Romanian women.

They were then under house arrest until August when courts placed them under judicial control. In January, a Romanian court rejected an appeal by Andrew Tate to ease the judicial control measures. “The court notes the legality of evidence management by … prosecutors, and rules that the case can go to trial,” the court said, adding the ruling could be challenged on appeal. Under Romanian law, the case then sat with the Bucharest court’s preliminary chamber, which needed to inspect the case files and evidence to ensure legality.

Bucharest, Romania — A court in Romania's capital on Friday ruled that a trial can start in the case of influencer Andrew Tate, who is charged with human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women. The Bucharest Tribunal ruled that prosecutors' case file against Tate met the legal criteria but did not set a date for the trial to begin. Andrew Tate, the divisive internet personality who has spent months in a Romanian jail on suspicion of organized crime and human trafficking, has won an appeal to replace his detention with house arrest, an official said Friday. BUCHAREST, Romania — Andrew Tate, the divisive internet personality who has spent months in a Romanian jail on suspicion of organized crime and human trafficking, has won an appeal to replace his detention with house arrest, an official said Friday.

The women have said they intend to commence proceedings against him. The brothers are seeking at least $5m (£3.9m) in the lawsuit, which was filed in Palm Beach county against the woman, her parents, another woman who lived at the Tates’ Bucharest estate and a male friend of the woman. The women were allegedly controlled by "intimidation, constant surveillance" and claims they were in debt, prosecutors said. They must also check in regularly with the police and are banned from trying to approach the victims. After a court hearing in June, Mr. Tate thanked his supporters and accused the news media of lying. They were not the first wealthy men who had been “unfairly attacked,” he said, adding that, “I look forward to being found innocent,” Mr. Tate said.

DIICOT requested this week that judges extend the house arrest measure as they filed their investigation. Under Romanian law, judges have 60 days to decide whether the case is sent to trial, but nonetheless often takes longer. As the brothers left the detention facility in Bucharest on Friday, Tristan Tate told reporters that the judges had made the right decision. Ramona Bolla, a spokeswoman for the Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism in Romania, said that the authorities were continuing to investigate. Under Romanian law, the trial must start by June, which would be six months after the Tate brothers were accused of crimes.

In January, Romanian authorities descended on a compound near Bucharest linked with the Tate brothers and towed away a fleet of luxury cars that included a Rolls-Royce, a Ferrari and a Porsche. Tate, a Muslim convert, also tweeted in response to the ruling, condemning charges that were "based on nothing" and which a judge had deemed "weak and circumstantial". Breaking these rules could lead to them returning to house arrest, or preventative detention.

The Reuters news agency quoted a written ruling by the Bucharest Court of Appeals as saying that it "replaces the house arrest measure with that of judicial control for a period of 60 days from August 4 until October 2." Seven female victims in the case, DIICOT said, were lured with false pretences of love and transported to Romania, where the gang sexually exploited and subjected them to physical violence. The Tate brothers, who have dual US and British citizenship, have been under house arrest since April pending an investigation into abuse of seven women, who prosecutors say were lured through false claims of relationships. Prosecutors have said that if they can prove the cars' owners gained money through illicit activities such as human trafficking, the assets would be used to cover the expenses of the investigation and to compensate victims.
