Romanian police have searched the houses of controversial influencer Andrew Tate as part of an investigation into new allegations against him.
The internet personality was already awaiting trial for rape and human trafficking, but could potentially now face additional charges of sex with, and trafficking in, underage persons, as well as money-laundering and attempting to influence witnesses, prosecutors say.
Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have denied all previous charges against them.
They were first detained in Romania in December 2022, then released from house arrest in August 2023.
According to DIICOT, the special prosecution service of the Romanian Organised Crime Directorate, four houses were searched on Wednesday morning in the capital, Bucharest, and in Ilfov county.
