A Romanian court has granted Britain’s request to extradite internet personality Andrew Tate, but the execution of the extradition has been postponed until the conclusion of ongoing trial proceedings in Romania.

In its ruling on Tuesday, the court also ordered the immediate release of Tate and his brother Tristan from police custody. The Tate brothers had been held for 24 hours pending a decision on the British arrest warrant.

According to a statement from the court of appeals, it has decided to enforce the arrest warrant and delay handing over the requested individuals until the final verdict is reached in the criminal case being heard by the Bucharest court.

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan were detained on Monday night based on allegations of sexual aggression dating back to 2012-2015, allegations they vehemently deny as per their PR team.

The arrest warrant was issued by the Westminster Magistrates Court in London, Reuters reported.

British authorities informed Reuters that the Tate brothers are part of an ongoing investigation into accusations of rape and human trafficking, and they are cooperating with Romanian authorities.
