Andrew Tate is locked in a shabby cell with a bed bug-infested mattress

Andrew Tate will likely celebrate New Year’s Eve in a cramped prison cell, which he’s only allowed to leave for an hour a day as investigations into human trafficking and rape unfold.

Tate, 36, was arrested Thursday along with his brother Tristan, 34, and two Romanian nationals and will be held for 30 days.

The jet-setter influencer is known for his gas-guzzling luxury car collection and was even handcuffed from his luxurious mansion in Bucharest.

But his life in one of Romania’s detention and pre-trial detention centers may be different from what the former kickboxer is used to.

There are dozens of centers in Romania operated by the country’s police force, although it is unclear where Tate is located.

However, an investigation by the Council of Europe offers a glimpse of the circumstances Tate is likely to face.

Detention cells are often cramped, measuring just 15 square meters and have their own bathroom – a toilet on the floor in an open cubicle, the Committee to Prevent Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment found earlier this year.

Conditions are “generally poor,” the report said, “with rickety cells, lack of amenities (storage space, tables and chairs) and worn-out mattresses and beds infested with bed bugs and cockroaches.”

“Many complaints were received about very limited access to hot water and insufficient heating of the cells in winter.

“In addition, the sanitary facilities were often in poor condition and prisoners were not provided with the right amount of washing and hygiene items.”

It was relatively rare for prisoners to be outside for more than an hour a day, and many prisoners spent 23 hours a day behind bars.

Tate, whose Instagram is filled with photos of him piloting private jets and standing next to fancy sports cars, may have to spend an hour or so every day on a “convulsive and cramped” training ground.

“The yards were generally equipped with exercise bars, but some had no rest,” the committee continued, and the authors concluded that most centers were “inadequate for daily exercise and access to fresh air.”

In a 2021 report on human rights in Romania, the US State Department found that Romanian prisons are not designed for long-term stays.

“Such facilities were often located in basements and lacked natural light and inadequate plumbing,” department officials wrote.

According to the Romanian government, detainees spend an average of about two months in centers.

Tate was initially held for 24 hours, but on Friday a Bucharest judge ordered all four parties to be held for an additional 30 days. Tate’s lawyers have appealed the “disappointing” verdict.

An appeals court could decide as early as Monday how long Tate will remain in detention, Eugen Vidineac, his lawyer, said.

Prosecutors said they are investigating whether the four suspects formed a criminal group to smuggle people in Romania, the UK and the US over the past year.

Six victims have been identified so far, according to authorities.

Prosecutors cited a separate rape allegation made in March this year, but did not specify which suspect the allegation was against.

Tate’s lawyers have denied the allegations.

For years, a self-proclaimed “misogynist,” Tate has been trying to build an online brand by offering wealth-building courses and selling supplements and mugs on his website.

The former Big Brother star has made a slew of hateful comments, mostly about women, such as saying that women who have been raped are “partly responsible”.

He gained mainstream relevance while battling Greta Thunberg, a 19-year-old climate activist, online.

In response to a tweet in which Thunberg boasted about his car collection and asked for her email address, she tweeted back, “Yeah, please tell me something.

“Email me at smalld**[email protected]eco.”
