Andrew Tate faces lawsuit from four women over sexual assault claims

Andrew Tate, a controversial influencer, faces a civil lawsuit in the UK from four women alleging serious sexual assault and coercive control between 2013 and 2015. The women accuse Tate of making disturbing remarks such as 'I'm debating whether to rape you or not' before assaulting them, with one woman alleging he strangled her until she lost consciousness and continued to assault her. Another woman claims Tate threatened her with a gun and used physical violence to control her while she worked for his webcam business. Medical reports indicate signs of asphyxia among some victims, supporting their allegations of physical abuse. Tate denies all accusations, labeling them as fabrications and asserting that the relationships were consensual. A preliminary hearing for the lawsuit is scheduled, while Tate's legal team argues that the claims are barred due to the time elapsed since the alleged incidents.
