Three UK Women Are Suing Andrew Tate For Alleged Rape and Abuse

Three UK women are suing Andrew Tate for rape and abuse while the self-proclaimed misogynist remains under house arrest in Romania.

On Thursday, the women announced their plans to sue the influencer for alleged abuse they faced while working as webcam models for Tate from 2013-2016.

According to Sky News, the women seek to “prove in court that Andrew is abusive, coercive, and controlling and that his public statements about women are nothing more than a fantasy.”

The women claim that they have suffered severe bodily and psychological harm.

According to their attorney Matt Jury, their accusations include rape as well as physical and sexual attacks, such as holding guns to women’s heads and choking them with belts.

Initially, the assault was reported to the police eight years ago.

Tate was taken into custody three times on suspicion of raping two women and once for assault, but the cases were quickly dropped and no further action was taken.

“When they went to the police their allegations were not treated seriously, the police didn’t take effective action. The evidence was not there,” Jury said. “We’re aware of the evidence that was provided, it should have been sufficient to warrant proper criminal intent investigation and, in our opinion, for charges to be brought.”

The jury added: “If those charges had been brought, and he’d been arrested here in England, then perhaps he wouldn’t have fled to Romania where he is reported to have committed further terrible crimes against women.”

One of Tates victims said she was shocked to see him again after he left the UK in 2017. She said it was a “huge shock to the system” when he rose to social media fame.

“After first meeting Andrew my life was impacted negatively from the daily mental manipulation and physical abuse that I endured every single day,” the victim said. “I now suffer with depression, anxiety, stress, and have been diagnosed with PTSD.”

Tate “vehemently” denies the most recent charges, which, according to a spokeswoman for Tate, he was not aware of until the impending legal action was made public.

Currently, the 36-year-old is on house arrest in Romania with his brother and two other women, where he is facing charges of rape, human trafficking, and organized crime.

Several alleged victims have accused Tate and his brother Tristian of rape and accused them of leading an organized crime group that lured and tricked women into sex trafficking.

According to reports, six victims have come forward alleging “acts of physical violence and mental coercion” and sexual exploitation.

Since being on house arrest, Tate has gained over 500,000 new followers on Twitter.
