Andrew Tate, the online influencer known for his misogynist opinions, was accused of having violated two women and of having threatened one of them with a firearm, in a complaint placed before the British High Court.
The accusations are part of a civil prosecution filed by the two women and two others, last June against Mr. Tate. The Times obtained details on their complaints from the court before a hearing on the case in London on April 15.
The four British women continue Mr. Tate for alleged violence relating to a period in England, between 2013 and 2015. The four women accused him of suffocating them, and two of them, one of them working for him at the time, accusing him of rape. Under British law, people who complain of sexual offenses are granted to anonymity unless they choose to give it up.
A woman who worked for the webcam affairs of Mr. Tate in 2015, said in the assertion that Mr. Tate, a former kickboxer, had raped her and beat her with a belt. The complaint alleges that he pointed out a weapon on her saying: “I am a boss” and “you will do what I say, or there will be a hell to pay.”
A second woman, who was in a personal relationship with Mr. Tate in 2013, said that he had raped her twice. The four women said that Mr. Tate had stifled them during various meetings, and two of them said that it was so much that they developed red spots in their eyes which indicated bleeding capillaries.
Mr. Tate, in court documents and public declarations, denied all accusations against him and said that any sexual intercourse was consensual.
