Contentious American musician Kanye West has begged President Donald Trump to grant a pardon to Sean Combs, often known as Diddy or Puff Diddy, who is incarcerated.
DAILY POST reports that Diddy is currently facing more than 30 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and misconduct. He’s currently in a New York jail awaiting a federal criminal trial on sex trafficking and racketeering.
Taking his X page on Thursday, he asked Trump to release the embattled hip-hop mogul.
“@realDonaldTrump, please free my brother Puff,” he wrote.
Diddy was arrested by Homeland Security on suspicion of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and interstate transportation for prostitution in September last year.
Diddy has denied all the charges, entering a not-guilty plea on Tuesday, 17 September. However, his bail request was rejected twice.
Recently, Diddy was reportedly rushed to a hospital in Brooklyn following a knee injury and was taken back to his cell after receiving treatment.
His trial will commence later this year.
