Romania detains Andrew Tate for human trafficking thanks to Greta Thunberg

Yesterday, we mentioned how Greta Thunberg had one up on Andrew Tate after he mocked her environmental ways on Twitter. As a delayed reply, he made a video trying to swing the insults back in her corner. What he didn’t realize was that the pizza box lying in front of him gave away his location. It led to him and his brother being arrested by the Romanian government.
Why would he get arrested for mocking Greta Thunberg? Well, he wasn’t. It’s only due to the Twitter debacle that they found him. The reason for his arrest goes way back. For those of you who don’t know, government officials had leads that Andrew Tate and his brother were involved in human trafficking for pornographic purposes. There’s apparently a syndicate of six, of which the Tate brothers are accused of being part of.
The two British gents were described by many as being part of this crime ring. There had been rumors that the Tate brothers were residing in Romania, but no hardcore evidence. Of course, that was until Andrew thought he could take on Greta with his bad Twitter video yesterday.

Greta can only take partial responsibility for the arrest, if any at all. In football, we would call this an ‘own goal’. It was thanks to Andrew leaving the pizza box on the table in the video that they knew where to find him. It’s made by a local restaurant that only makes that specific package for their pizzas. Once identified, it was only a matter of hours before they arrested the Tates.
And Greta keeps rolling with the punches. While she’s not taking responsibility for the arrests, you have to love this Tweet:
