The controversial social media star is facing charges for human trafficking, forming an organised criminal group and rape

Evidence compiled against Andrew Tate by Romanian prosecutors has revealed key details about the allegations made against the kickboxer-turned-influencer.

Andrew Tate, 36, allegedly "coerced women into sexual acts" and even left one woman with eye and breast injuries.


His brother Tristan Tate, 35, also appears to say he will "slave these b*****s" in transcribed audio messages.

The transcript claimed: "Mainly I'm going to slave these b*****s […] I'm going to make them work even more hours and hours and hours.. I work these b*****s like slaves. […] SLAVE work. Minimum 10 or 12 hours a day."

The Tates are facing trial in Romania for human trafficking and forming an organised criminal group with two other defendants.

Andrew, who rose to notoriety following a series of viral social media videos, is also facing a charge of rape.

The defendants deny all charges brought against them.

Evidence compiled by prosecutors in a 300-page document was written in Romanian but has been re-translated to English by the BBC.

It is yet to be verified whether the messages had been accurately transcribed or whether they were sent by the defendants as claimed.

The original evidence was not included in the summary dossier.

However, the file includes testimony from what prosecutors claim are several women who lived in a building near the Tates’ home on the outskirts of Bucharest.

The women allege the defendants controlled income from online pornographic content, accounts and passwords.

Georgiana Naghel, one of the Tates' two Romanian co-defendants, is accused of controlling the OnlyFans cash.

Andrew Tate regularly used insults such as "b***h" and "w***e".

An alleged rape victim claimed the 36-year-old told her to take her clothes off while keeping her shoes on.

Tate, who allegedly then "slapped her across the face", was also accused of holding her head during sex to the point that she felt unable to reject him.

The case involving the Tates has been covered by the international press and Romania’s Organised Crime Unit confirmed it was continuing to investigate possible crimes of trafficking in minors and money laundering connected to the case.

However, no suspects have been formally identified as of yet.

The Tates’ lawyers are expected to challenge the prosecution evidence in a pre-trial hearing later this month.

The defendants could challenge the material during the trial and some of the evidence could even be deemed inadmissible.

It is possible the brothers may dispute that they made these statements and contest their accuracy or context.
