BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Masked police officers in Romania have carried out fresh raids at the home of internet influencer Andrew Tate, who is awaiting trial on charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women. Romania’s anti-organized crime agency said it was searching four homes in the counties of Bucharest and nearby Ilfov early Wednesday, investigating allegations including human trafficking, the trafficking of minors and money laundering. Tate and his brother Tristan were being detained for 24 hours. That’s the maximum they can be held without a judge approving a longer detention.
