According to court documents, controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have been released from a detention facility in Bucharest, Romania and placed under house arrest for thirty days instead.
Following his release, Andrew posted a smiling face emoji and a link to sign up to his website, saying: “Email regarding my release will be sent in 24 hours.” The influencer also posted a video of himself smoking while pacing across a room as “7 Jacket“, a single by Jamaican deejay Shane O, produced by 324 New Empire Records, blares in the background. The video has accumulated over 7.5 million views in less than four hours.
Checks by Prism Marketing Consultants revealed that Tate’s Twitter post has led to a boost in streams for Shane O. The official video for “7 Jacket” continues to trend steadily towards the million mark on YouTube.
Meanwhile, Tristan expressed his respect for the judges and their decision, saying, “they will be vindicated in their decision, because I’m an innocent man and I can’t wait to prove it.” The pair, along with two Romanian women, Naghel Georgiana Manuela and Radu Alexandra Luana, are being investigated by prosecutors in the capital Bucharest. They had been detained on various allegations, including human trafficking.
Andrew Tate’s communications director, Mateea Petrescu, stated that the authorities released them under house arrest as they were not a flight risk and did not pose a danger to public safety.
Since last year ive been in 24 hour lockdown. No yard time.
Pacing a 3metre cell with zero electronics or outside contact. Absolute clarity of mind. Real thoughts. Real plans.
Vivid pain.
One hour home and I cant stand my phone.
Some habits die hard.
