A Romanian court has extended by 30 days the house arrest of Andrew Tate, the social media personality who was charged this week with rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

The Bucharest Tribunal’s decision came days after prosecutors from Romania’s anti-organised crime agency, DIICOT, formally indicted the 36-year-old former professional kickboxer after filing their criminal investigation in a Bucharest court.
