These words of the anti-feminist influencer, accused of pimping, were obtained by the Romanian media Ghandul and reported by the Daily Mail.
“I am a man, I do not listen to the reproaches of women. Trust me and shut up, don’t bother me once more today!” would he have to his victim. “It doesn’t matter if I call you a slave.”
In the conversation in question, the young woman admits to Andrew Tate that she would prefer not to have her name tattooed on her body.
“To keep pure,” she says, to which he replies that “pure women obey their men.”
“If I choose a woman to be my wife, she will have to love me enough to let me tell her what I want. I will decide if it is a slave”, he assures.
Six potential victims have been identified at this stage. Duped by the Andrew Tate and his brother, who feigned feelings for them, they would have been forced by violence into prostitution and the production of pornographic films, and for some sequestered.
These women would have been required to call Andrew Tate “their king”, who would not have let them go outside without being accompanied by one of his employees.
The Bucharest court on Tuesday rejected the request for release of the influencer and his brother, arrested at the end of December in Romania in a pimping case.
Accused by the courts of “constitution of an organized criminal group, human trafficking and rape”, the Tate brothers had appealed once morest their pre-trial detention, ordered on December 30 for a period of 30 days.
The judges had invoked a “risk of absconding” and a “danger to public order in view of the gravity of the crimes” charged.
Two of their relatives, of Romanian nationality, were also arrested and remain behind bars.
Many of the men’s assets, including their collection of luxury cars, were placed under seal.
