The Romanian pizza chain appearing in Andrew Tate’s response video to Greta Thunberg was reportedly used as proof for Romanian authorities to confirm his presence in the country, leading to the arrest of him and his brother in a human trafficking probe pic.twitter.com/MD0cved7q5
have been arrested by Romanian authorities as part of an investigation into human trafficking. According to early (yet to be verified) reports, authorities used pizza branding visible in a Twitter video published by Andrew to verify that he was at his Romanian house.
Romania’s Directorate for the Investigation of Organized Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) confirming it raided the homes of suspects linked to coercion, physical violence, sexual exploitation and rape.
The Tate brothers were not named in the statement, but local publication it did indeed pertain to them.
The statement alleged that the suspects used the “loverboy method” to lure women to their homes on the promise of romance. They then forced the women to work as pornographic models as per local news site .
In a series of videos reshared by online publication Dexerto, Andrew can be seen wearing a hoodie while Romanian authorities place him into the back seat of a police car.
His brother Tristan can be seen walking behind him.
Both brothers are in handcuffs.
The arrest comes just days after Andrew was absolutely destroyed on Twitter by 19-year-old climate activist .
Published on December 28, Greta’s re-tweet quickly became one of Twitter’s posts reaching nearly three million “likes” and almost 200 million views at the time of writing.
Andrew was clearly enraged that his small dick energy was put on display for the entire world to see, so he published an extremely cringe response video.
It was this particular video that supposedly allowed authorities to confirm Tate’s whereabouts since the pizzas featured were purchased from Jerry’s Pizza, a Romanian chain.
To save you the pain of having to watch the entire video, the vibe is essentially Andrew attempting to rebut Greta by saying “I know you are but what am I?”.
It was giving “grade three argument in the school playground”. The whole spectacle was actually kinda…sad.
Some Twitter users have been sceptical that the pizza box branding was in fact used to trace and subsequently arrest Andrew.
This is because Andrew had already posted a video confirming he was in Romania on December 26.
It is possible, however, that authorities used the pizzas to confirm he was at his residence, rather than just anywhere in the country.
Andrew Tate gained notoriety this year by encouraging his fans to share clips of him to TikTok saying .
The aim of the game was to lure people into his subscription-based get-rich-quick scheme called Hustlers University.
His vile persona eventually got him banned from TikTok, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
Recently, however, Andrew was permitted back on Twitter when new CEO .
More to come.
