Controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan can be extradited to the UK, a Romanian court has ruled.

Andrew Tate, 37, and Tristan, 35, were detained on Monday in Bucharest after Bedfordshire Police said it had obtained an arrest warrant.

The brothers can be extradited only after the conclusion of their separate trial in Romania on human trafficking charges, a judge ruled.

They have been released from custody.

    Russia doesn’t have the death penalty: They abolished it to get into the Council of Europe and haven’t re-introduced it yet.

    …that’s de jure, though. De facto is a completely different matter, both when it comes to falling out of windows and prison conditions so bad serving meatgrinder duty in Ukraine is a preferable option.

      It does. It’s just suspended. But yeah, the legal status doesn’t mean anything when you’re just going to illegally murder people anyway.
