On Tuesday, it was confirmed both brothers will be extradited to the UK from Romania to face rape and human trafficking allegations.
In a post to Twitter, on Wednesday, Tristan said: “They’ll do anything to put you in jail”
"Yes anything besides give me to trial and prove beyond all reasonable doubt that I’ve committed a crime.
"Anything BUT that."
He has not explained who he means by "they".
The brothers, who are both UK-US nationals, are to be extradited back to the UK after separate trial proceedings in Bucharest end. The trial could take several years.
It is understood the pair, aged 37 and 35, were arrested in Romania on Monday on charges dating back to between 2012 and 2015.
Both deny all allegations.
Bedfordshire Police said as part of an ongoing investigation into allegations of rape and human trafficking, it had obtained a European arrest warrant for two men in their 30s.
The force added it is working with Romanian authorities as part of the investigation.
The tweet added it was the 441st day of his arrest.

Yes anything besides give me to trial and prove beyond all reasonable doubt that I’ve committed a crime.
Anything BUT that.
This is day 441 of my arrest.
I have a clean criminal record and am an American citizen.
