Former kickboxing champion and social‑media personality Andrew Tate has been formally charged in Romania with trafficking minors and laundering money, a move that could bring him to trial in a European court. Prosecutors allege that Tate and his associates used online platforms to lure underage girls into exploitative arrangements, while funneling the proceeds through a complex network of shell companies. The indictment follows a broader crackdown on online predators, and authorities say the evidence was gathered through extensive digital surveillance and cooperation with international law‑enforcement agencies. Tate has denied the accusations and vowed to fight the charges, but the case could have significant legal and reputational repercussions for the controversial figure.
