This is the best summary I could come up with:
The trial of Andrew Tate, the social media influencer accused of human trafficking, rape, and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women, can go ahead, a court in Romania has said.
The Bucharest Tribunal said that the prosecutors' case file against Tate met the legal criteria but did not set a date for the trial to begin.
One of the brothers' lawyers, Eugen Vidineac, said the court's decision "lacks legal basis and reasoning" and has filed an appeal.
Under Romanian law, the Bucharest court's preliminary chamber needed to inspect the case files and evidence to ensure legality.
The victims were then taken to properties outside the city, and through physical violence and mental intimidation were sexually exploited by being forced to produce pornographic content for social media sites that generated large sums of money, prosecutors said.
Tate gained millions of fans by promoting an ultra-masculine lifestyle that critics say denigrates women, though he has denied holding misogynistic views.
