Romanian Court Strikes Evidence in Tate Case

A Romanian appeals court has ruled to exclude key evidence in the human trafficking case against Andrew Tate, his brother Tristan, and two Romanian women, prompting prosecutors to decide within five days whether to proceed with the trial. The court found significant legal flaws in the indictment, including violations of defendants' rights and inconsistencies in testimonies and charges. Tate's attorney called the ruling a 'monumental victory,' while the brothers continue to deny all allegations. This ruling poses a challenge for Romanian prosecutors, who previously indicted the Tates in June 2023, with a trial initially set for April 2024. In addition to the ongoing case, the Tates face a separate investigation involving trafficking minors and money laundering. The court's decision may impact the trajectory of their legal battles, including potential extradition to the U.K. on separate charges.
