"Staged for clout" - Fans react as Andrew Tate teases "counter attack" after Romanian court refuses to put him on trial over trafficking charges

Controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate has just posted a tease for a potential counter-suit. This comes in response to the latest development in his legal battle. Earlier today, the Court of Appeals in Bucharest, Romania returned the human trafficking case to prosecutors, drawing fan reactions on X.

Procedural irregularities have been identified in the case, and prosecutors are now challenged to revise it and present renewed evidence, that addresses the irregularities. It must be done within five days, as it is the second time the case was sent back to prosecutors or the charges will be dropped.

Naturally, the former kickboxer posted a response to it all on X.

"Counter attack loading"

Fans were quick to react, with one comment predicting a Tate victory:

"You will win"

Another fan wondered if the charges were fraudulent like Tate often claims:

"What are the odds this whole thing was staged for clout?"

Others congratulated him:

"Congrats bro! Always knew this day would come!"

Some even asked him to move to the United States:

"Come back to America"

Fan reactions to Andrew Tate's post

Both Tate and his younger brother, along with two other women are being charged with creating an organized crime group to exploit and traffic women. Tate has repeatedly denied the accusations, instead claiming to be the victim of a global conspiracy perpetrated by the powers that be to undermine his influence.

Despite the numerous controversies he's been embroiled in, Tate hasn't suffered from a lack of support, with several high-profile UFC fighters backing him. Among them are former bantamweight champions Sean O'Malley and Aljamain Sterling, both of whom have posed for pictures with him.

Another is undefeated middleweight phenom Khamzat Chimaev, who even called him on FaceTime and invited him to attend one of his fights.

Andrew Tate recently came to Conor McGregor's defense

Conor McGregor was recently found liable for assaulting Nikita Hand by the Irish High Court. The civil case dates back to 2019, when a criminal conviction was initially sought before prosecutors declined to pursue it, citing low prospects of securing said conviction.

Nevertheless, the Irishman being found liable for assault drew a response from Andrew Tate, who penned a fiery post on X in defiance of the ruling.

Tate wrote:

"Bullsh*t ruling against Conor McGregor. Women sleep with rich men and if that man doesn't fund their lifestyle afterward theys they lie and sue. Their brutal narcissism can't take the L of being undesired. We've set a dangerous precedent. It's literally impossible to be a man in the western world."

Regardless, McGregor has faced severe consequences, as has Tate.
