Andrew Tate Forced To Pay Back £2,000,000 To Police Over Unpaid Tax

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate have been charged more than £2 million due to allegations that they owe millions in unpaid taxes from their internet enterprises.

This follows a decision against them by the Westminster Magistrates Court.

The Tates and a woman only known as J are the owners of the seven blocked bank accounts that contain the funds.

Although she had no involvement in their enterprises, they opened a second account in her name and paid less than $12 million into an account in J’s name.

The decision, according to Andrew Tate, “is not justice” and was the result of a “coordinated attack.”

According to Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring, it was a “straightforward cheat of the revenue” that gave the impression of a “complex financial matrix.”

Cryptocurrency held in an account under J’s name made up a portion of the funds.

In a statement issued after the ruling, Andrew Tate said: “First, they labelled me a human trafficker, yet they couldn’t find a single woman to stand against me.

“When that narrative crumbled, they turned to outright theft — freezing my accounts for more than two years and now seizing everything they could.

“This is not justice; it’s a co-ordinated attack on anyone who dares to challenge the system.

“Speak against the Matrix, and they’ll come for your freedom, your reputation, and your livelihood.

“This raises serious questions about the lengths authorities will go to silence dissent.”

A spokesman for Devon and Cornwall Police, added: “Devon & Cornwall Police acknowledges the determination of Senior District Judge Goldspring and his decision to grant the force’s application.

“From the outset we have aimed to demonstrate that Andrew and Tristan Tate evaded taxes and laundered money through bank accounts located in Devon.

“The investigation focuses on substantial earnings accrued between 2014 and 2022, during which we believe no tax or VAT was paid on those funds.

“Furthermore, both individuals are alleged to have concealed the origins of their income by channelling money through ‘front’ accounts, constituting criminal activity and rendering those earnings proceeds of crime.

“We will refrain from further comment until the 28-day appeal period has concluded.”

The brothers were described as “serial tax and VAT evaders” at a previous hearing in July.

“Ignore, ignore, ignore because in the end they go away” was Tate’s strategy, according to what the court heard.

Sarah Clarke KC for Devon and Cornwall Police said: “Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate are serial tax and VAT evaders. They, in particular Andrew Tate, are brazen about it.”

It was also revealed in July that J received a payout of £805,000 into her Revolut account.

The brothers are also facing a number of different criminal allegations in Romania and are scheduled to be extradited to the United Kingdom.

In one case in Romania, the pair is suspected of human trafficking and forming a criminal organization to abuse women, while Andrew Tate is also accused of rape.
