Andrew Tate leaves Romanian court shouting 'you will find out the truth'

A Romanian court has ordered that influencer Andrew Tate, accused of human trafficking and organised crime, be detained for a further 30 days.

As Tate lost his appeal against the detention after appearing in court, he launched a bizarre rant on social media.

“Even if you feel powerful every day, some days you will feel more powerful than other days... Outcompete the average man’s best day on your worst,” the influencer tweeted.

He claimed there was no evidence against him and his brother Tristan as they left the Bucharest court.

The brothers and their two coaccused were appealing against their continued detention until 27 February over claims of rape and human trafficking.

As the brothers left the court, Andrew Tate said: “Ask them for evidence and they will give you none, because it doesn’t exist. You’ll find out the truth of this case soon.”

Meanwhile, his manager claimed Tate was “in for a good week” in a livestreamed interview over the jailed influencer.

Romanian authorities arrested the brothers along with two women in December on the accounts of six women who alleged they were sexually exploited by the detained group.
