Romanian authorities have confiscated a collection of cars belonging to controversial blogger Andrew Tate, who bragged about his cars to climate activist Greta Thunberg. This came just days after Tate himself was arrested as part of a human trafficking investigation.
According to media reports, the Romanian authorities have confiscated a collection of cars, the value of which is estimated at more than five million euros.
“Hi Greta. I have 33 cars. My Bugatti w16 8.0L Quad Turbo. My TWO Ferrari 812 competizione have 6.5 liter v12 engines. This is just the beginning. Please provide your email address so I can send the full list of my car collection and their huge emissions,” the blogger previously tweeted to eco-activist Greta Thunberg.
In response, Greta advised Tate to write to her by mail with the eloquent address: [email protected].
Tate was detained in Romania on suspicion of human trafficking, rape and the creation of an organized crime group. This came after he posted a two-minute video arguing with Thunberg, who helped pinpoint his whereabouts. About halfway through the video, he was handed a pizza. Social media users noticed that, judging by the inscription on the box, Tate could be in Romania. During a search, a weapon was found at Tate's. Together with the blogger, his brother Tristan was also detained.
Tate is a former boxer and contestant on the British reality show Big Brother. He is known for his misogynistic statements, for which he was blocked by most social networks.
"This is what happens when you don't recycle pizza boxes," Greta Thunberg tweeted after Tate's arrest.
