Police said the Tates allegedly formed a group of organized crime and “sexually exploited” the women, “forcing them to carry out pornographic manifestations in order to produce and disseminate them through social media platforms,” ​​the newspaper said.

However, some versions indicate that the lawsuit with Thunberg could have contributed to the arrest of Tate, since the boxer revealed his location through a Twitter post in which he appears with a pizza box with Romanian typography, which would have allowed the police to confirm that he was in the country.

Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg and the former athlete, Andrew Tate, are a trend on social networks after the latter wanted to annoy the young activist by showing off his 33 cars that pollute the environment, to which Greta replied “yes, please enlighten me. send me an email at energíadepenepequeño@búscateunaida.com”.

The controversial American is known for his comments against women and until recently, the account of the former athlete recognized for participating in high-level kickboxing competitions had been blocked.
