    The Tate brothers will be extradited to the UK after they are tried in Romania, the British government said, according to The Telegraph, which quotes Security Minister Dan Jarvis.

    The announcement comes after Andrew Tate gave a post, the day after the presidential elections, in which he said he was leaving Romania and hinted that he was doing it because of the fact that Nicusor Dan came out as president. In fact, he even supported George Simion and even gave several posts in this regard.

    In March 2024, the Bucharest Court of Appeal ruled that the two influencers could be sent to the UK, but decided to postpone it until the conclusion of the criminal trial in Romania. That’s after the Bedfordshire police obtained an arrest warrant, in which they are charged with rape, human trafficking and setting up an organised crime group.

    Andrew Tate, 38, and his brother Tristan, 36, deny all the charges.

    The minister’s confirmation marks a first when a British official says the Tate brothers arrive in the UK to compare to justice.

    In a letter sent to McCue Jury & Partners, Minister Dan Jarvis "expressed his deepest sympathy for all the victims of these abominable crimes. We are absolutely firm in our commitment to combat sexual violence in all its forms and support survivors. These persons remain criminally investigated in Romania for human trafficking, rape, money laundering and the establishment of an organized criminal group. It is notorious that the Tate brothers were arrested at the request of the United Kingdom, which was accepted and processed by the Romanian courts, who agreed that the brothers would be handed over to the United Kingdom after the conclusion of the internal proceedings in Romania.

    Matt Jury, a lawyer representing the four victims who sues Andrew Tate, said: "Finally, we have confirmation from the UK government that the Tate brothers will be handed over by Romania to be tried in the UK when their prosecution is over. But this can only happen if they are in Romania at the time. It is now essential that the Labour Party ensures that this will happen and that the victims of Andrew Tate will be done to justice. Brothers can’t be allowed to slip through their fingers. While we welcome this important step, the Security Minister has not yet been able to explain why the United Kingdom did not call for the extradition of the United States or the United Arab Emirates when it had the chance.

    Last month, there was talk of the possibility that the Tate brothers could be arrested and extradited from Florida days before the information that revealed she had assaulted her ex-girlfriend in Los Angeles. However, no request was made from the Ministry of the Interior.

    The office of James Uthmeier, Florida’s attorney general, said on March 7 that he was prepared to “go through” any official extradition request issued by British authorities.

    Andrew Tate is accused of suffocating his ex-girlfriend Brianna Stern so loudly that he almost lost consciousness. It all happened at Beverly Hills Hotel on March 11. He denies the allegations.

    She claims the assault took place at the time when Andrew and his brother Tristan left Romania for Florida on a private jet in February after a court order was lifted to them that restricted their travels.
