Story summary

UK lawyers for Andrew and Tristan Tate plan to challenge an extradition bid from the US to Britain through a judicial review. Both men deny wrongdoing. In March 2024, Romania had agreed to extradite Andrew back to the UK but only after concluding its own proceedings. The State Department’s official letter states that Andrew is “wanted to stand trial in the United Kingdom” on 16 charges, including 10 counts of rape and other serious offenses. Mr Ford, representing the Tate brothers, argues that pursuing extradition while Romanian proceedings are ongoing would impact their ability to defend themselves adequately in UK courts.
