美国检察官正要求将因强奸和人口贩运指控面临引渡的Tate兄弟继续关押在联邦监狱,声称他们构成逃亡风险和公共安全威胁[1]。周四将举行拘留听证会以决定兄弟俩是否继续被监禁[1]。
39岁的Andrew Tate和38岁的Tristan Tate于7月18日被逮捕,两天后出庭,此后一直被关押在迈阿密联邦拘留中心[1]。两兄弟面临英国针对4名新举报人提出的指控,罪名包括强奸、人身伤害、贩运以及与儿童不雅图像和极端色情制品相关的犯罪[1]。英国此前还对他们提出涉及3名举报人、时间跨度为2012至2015年的指控[1]。同时,两人也面临罗马尼亚在2010至2017年期间提出的相关指控,涉及诱骗妇女进行性剥削[1]。
检察官表示,两兄弟"声称保有多本护照和身份,在许多国家拥有过度财富和影响力,坚决不愿自愿返回英国接受检控"[1]。英国需在9月中旬前向国务院提供证据以支持引渡[1]。Andrew Tate现拥有超过1000万的X平台粉丝[1]。
American prosecutors have requested that brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate remain detained in federal custody while they contest extradition proceedings to the United Kingdom [1]. The brothers, who have been held at the Miami Federal Detention Center since their arrest on July 18, are facing a detention hearing scheduled for Thursday to determine whether they will continue to be imprisoned [1].
The Tate brothers are accused of serious crimes in multiple jurisdictions. In the UK, they face charges including rape, assault, human trafficking, and offenses related to child sexual abuse material and extreme pornography involving four complainants [1]. These new British charges build upon earlier allegations spanning 2012 to 2015 involving three victims [1]. Separately, Romanian authorities have leveled charges of trafficking women for sexual exploitation, with allegations dating from 2010 to 2017 [1].
Prosecutors argue the brothers pose a flight risk and threat to public safety, citing their claim that the defendants possess multiple passports and identities while maintaining substantial wealth and influence across numerous countries, and that they have demonstrated a strong unwillingness to voluntarily return to the UK to face prosecution [1]. The UK government must submit evidence supporting the extradition to the State Department by mid-September [1]. Andrew Tate, 39, commands over 10 million followers on the X platform, while his brother Tristan is 38 years old [1].
