Andrew Tate, the polarizing online figure and former kickboxer, has been granted release from house arrest by a Romanian court, as reported by his spokesperson. The 38-year-old, along with his brother Tristan, faces serious allegations including human trafficking, sexual exploitation of women, and money laundering. While the brothers maintain their innocence, the legal proceedings surrounding them are complex and ongoing.

Controversial influencer Andrew Tate is now under judicial control as he faces multiple charges, including human trafficking, in Romania.
Initially placed under house arrest in August following a second round of investigations, both Andrew and Tristan Tate stand accused of trafficking minors and engaging in sexual activities with minors, alongside four additional suspects. These allegations form part of a broader investigation into their alleged criminal activities in Romania. Their spokesman asserted that both siblings are fully committed to cooperating with the legal system.
In December, a separate case against the Tates was dismissed for procedural reasons, leading to increased scrutiny of their actions. The new judicial arrangement allows them to move freely within Romania, provided they comply with legal stipulations. Extradition requests from the UK regarding separate rape and human trafficking allegations will be addressed only after the Romanian cases are completed.
Additionally, the Tates are implicated in tax evasion in the UK, where a court authorized the seizure of over £2 million due to unpaid taxes linked to their online enterprises. Andrew Tate has characterized this ruling as an injustice and a "coordinated attack" against him.
Despite his controversies—including previous bans from numerous social media platforms for his misogynistic views—Tate has attracted a vast following, particularly among young men, while residing in Romania for several years after moving from the UK.
As the situation continues to unfold, both the public and the legal system will keep a keen eye on the developments regarding the Tate brothers.
