Andrew and Tristan Tate Lose Over £2 Million in Seized Funds Amid Tax Evasion Allegations
Westminster Magistrates Court has ruled against Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan, leading to the seizure of over £2 million from their accounts due to unpaid taxes linked to their online businesses.
The funds, held in seven frozen bank accounts, were traced to the Tates and a woman identified as J. Authorities allege the brothers funneled substantial sums, including cryptocurrency, through accounts in J’s name, despite her lack of involvement in their ventures.
Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring described the scheme as a “straightforward cheat of the revenue,” uncovering years of alleged tax evasion and money laundering. Devon and Cornwall Police revealed the brothers accrued millions between 2014 and 2022 without paying taxes or VAT.
Andrew Tate, however, criticized the ruling, claiming it is part of a “coordinated attack” to silence dissent. “This is not justice; it’s theft disguised as legal action,” Tate said in a statement.
The brothers are also facing separate criminal charges in Romania, including allegations of human trafficking and rape, and are set to be extradited to the UK.

The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, then addressed the claims online and stated in his statement that he disagreed that the rumour is true and stated, “The spread of misinformation only causes more harm than good. In this era, we can and must do better.”

Former Kogi politician, Dino Melaye, faces backlash from the public after he shared a video on social media of him abroad and living well through his luxurious lifestyle.
In the same video, he speaks about Nigeria’s current economy and shares his disappointment.
He wrote, “See country, God help us to build a true nation where our wicked leaders will be in jail and the right people in power. Nigeria must be fixed. YES WE CAN.”
However, many state that what he posted and what he is saying contradict each other, and they accused him of sharing his own records to know if he was a corrupt leader.
