Kanye West, a well-known American rapper, has urged US President, Donald Trump to grant a pardon to Sean Diddy Combs, also known as Puff Diddy, who is in prison.
AFRIPOST had reported that Diddy is dealing with over 30 civil lawsuits claiming sexual assault and misconduct.
He is currently in jail in New York, waiting for a federal trial related to sex trafficking and racketeering.
Taking his X page on Thursday, Ye asked Trump to release the embattled hip-hop mogul.
“@realDonaldTrump, please free my brother Puff,” he wrote .
Diddy was taken into custody by Homeland Security in September of last year. He is suspected of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transporting people for prostitution.
Diddy has denied all allegations and pleaded not guilty on September 17. His requests for bail have been denied twice.
Diddy was recently taken to a hospital in Brooklyn due to a knee injury. After getting treatment, he was returned to his cell.
His trial will commence later this year.
