More luxury cars have been seized from the Romanian home of suspect Andrew Tait, who was placed under house arrest earlier this week.
The 37-year-old influencer was arrested on Wednesday along with his brother Tristan, 36, and five others as part of an investigation into charges including human trafficking, trafficking in minors, sexual contact with a minor and money laundering.
On Saturday, Romania’s anti-organized crime agency, DIICOT, seized more vehicles from the Tate Museum’s largest premises in Bucharest.
