American rapper Kanye West has called on former U.S. President Donald Trump to grant a pardon to embattled music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is currently in jail awaiting trial on federal charges.
Diddy faces multiple civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and misconduct, along with criminal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and interstate transportation for prostitution.
He was arrested by Homeland Security in September last year and remains in a New York jail after his bail request was denied twice.
On Thursday, West took to his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), to plead for Diddy’s release, writing: “@realDonaldTrump, please free my brother Puff.”
Diddy has denied all charges against him, entering a not-guilty plea on September 17.
Recently, he was reportedly hospitalized in Brooklyn for a knee injury before being returned to his cell. His trial is set to begin later this year.
