If you are not living under a rock, you might surely be aware of the arrest of a very controversial internet personality Andrew Tate. The former professional kickboxer was detained from his mansion in Romania.
Apparently, it was because of Tate’s minor mistake that the Romanian police got to know about his location. It was earlier reported that the arrest was on the grounds of alleged human trafficking.
However, later reports suggested that Tate was detained for 30 days for alleged money laundering charges. But now Tate’s lawyer has stated that there is no evidence to support the charges.
