Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate moved to house arrest

Following a Romanian judge’s decision, controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan were transferred from detention to house arrest.

The most recent period of imprisonment, which was scheduled to end on April 29, has been replaced by the Court of Appeal’s decision in Bucharest. Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu, two coworkers, are also getting their freedom.

Unless they obtain legal authority to leave, all four of them have been told to remain in the residences they currently occupy. The Tate brothers were “ecstatic,” a spokesman for the family told the BBC.

After being released, Andrew posted a video of himself pacing in a room while smoking a cigar, saying: “Since last year I’ve been in 24-hour lockdown. No yard time.

“Pacing a 3-metre cell with zero electronics or outside contact. Absolute clarity of mind. Real thoughts. Real plans. Vivid pain. One hour home and I can’t stand my phone.

“Some habits die hard. We must defeat Shaytan.”
Tristan, meanwhile, tweeted: “4 months without putting on a pair of alligator shoes. The struggle was real.”Since December, the brothers have been in custody. They are being looked into for alleged rape, human trafficking, and involvement in organised crime. Each has refuted any misconduct.

Former kickboxer and British-American Andrew Tate was fired from the British television programme Big Brother in 2016 when a video surfaced that purported to show him assaulting a woman.

As a result of his comments that women should “carry responsibility” for being sexually assaulted, he later gained prominence online and was banned from Twitter. He was later given a second chance.

Despite social media bans, he became well-liked, especially among young males, by promoting what he portrayed as an extremely opulent and hyper-masculine lifestyle.
