Andrew Tate, who faces charges of rape and traffic in Romania, has gone to the United States

Bucharest, Romania (AP) – The influential brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate have abandoned Romania for the United States after a prohibition of traveling that was previously imposed on them, an official said Thursday.

The brothers are accused of human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

It is not clear under what conditions the Tates were allowed, who are enthusiastic supporters of President Donald Trump and have millions of online followers, they were allowed to leave Romania.

An official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case, said the decision was at the discretion of prosecutors.

Andrew Tate, 38, and Tristan Tate, 36, who are American-British dual citizens, were arrested near the capital of Romania at the end of 2022 along with two Romanian women. Romanian prosecutors formally accused the four last year. In April, the Bucharest court ruled that a trial could begin but did not establish a date. The four deny all the accusations.
