Romanian prosecutors indict Tate brothers on trafficking, seek asset seizure

Romanian anti-organized crime prosecutors (DIICOT) have formally indicted Andrew and Tristan Tate, sending them to court on charges including human trafficking, money laundering, and influencing statements. The indictment alleges they obtained over $1.25 million from the sexual exploitation of a minor, and prosecutors seek seizure of assets worth €825,000. This marks a significant legal escalation in a high-profile case that has been under investigation since 2022, moving from pre-trial stages to formal prosecution.
