It appears as though Romania is taking seriously the case it's building against Andrew Tate. Tate remains in Romanian lockup, owing to accusations that he engaged in human trafficking, along with rape and organized crime.

Tate's time behind bars dates back to late December of last year. Also in Romanian lockup on the same charges are Tristan Tate, Andrew's little brother, and two female friends of the Tates: Luana Radu and Georgiana Nagel.

So far, Andrew Tate's made multiple appeals to get out of prison. His attorneys have pushed for house arrest. However, each time, judges in Bucharest ruled against their asks.

Romanian judges also warn that the Tates pose a flight risk. Allegedly, Tate was overheard on a prison phone call discussing plans to run off to Dubai, if granted release from prison.

Today, the world learned that Tate and the three others arrested alongside him will stay behind bars until at least Friday, April 21.

What to know about the latest extension of Tate's detainment

Romanian prosecutors secured another victory in court, upon asking for the extended incarceration of Andrew Tate and the other aforementioned prisoners.

DIICOT spokeswoman Ramona Bolla also affirmed today that the probe into Tate will proceed as he spends at least the next 30 days in lockup.

Tate's legal counsel once more alleged he should be given house arrest; his attorneys likewise claim that the detention time remains fueled by the infamy of the brothers.

However, Romania disagrees. When both Tate brothers appeared before court in Bucharest, a judge spoke directly to them. In doing so, the judge asked the Tate brothers for their thoughts on law enforcement claiming they're dangers to the public and flight risks to boot.

Whatever the brothers said in response did not convince the judge to reject the request from Romanian prosecutors for more detention time.

Tate's team reacts

On March 28, Andrew Tate will appeal this latest judgment to extend his detention time through much of April. However, Tate has appealed every single prior extension of his prison time. He likewise appealed Romanian authorities' seizures of his assets.

None of these appeals rendered the outcomes he wanted. This is unlikely to change on March 28.

In the meantime, a spokesperson for Andrew and Tristan Tate claims the brothers feel "rendered speechless" by the lengthening of their detainment on allegations of human trafficking, rape, and organized crime.

The spokesperson also said "irreparable harm" has befallen the image and reputation of the Tates.
