Motion rejected
Sean “Diddy” Combs remains in custody
US rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs, who has been charged with sexual offenses, remains in custody. The judge in charge, Arun Subramanian, rejected a corresponding application for his release from prison, as several US media outlets reported in unison.
Combs' lawyers had offered a bail package of around 50 million dollars to allow their client to move to house arrest. Such a request had already been rejected twice before.
In custody since mid-September
Combs has been in custody since mid-September. The rapper is accused by the public prosecutor's office in New York of sex trafficking, organized crime and other offences. Combs pleaded not guilty. The trial is currently provisionally set to begin in May.
There are also a number of civil lawsuits for sexual abuse. A law firm in Houston, Texas, recently announced that it is representing 120 people with allegations against the rapper.
Most successful rapper in the world
With hits such as "I'll Be Missing You" and "Bad Boy For Life", Combs has been one of the most successful rappers in the world over the past decades. In the course of his career, he used the pseudonyms "Puff Daddy", "P. Diddy" and "Diddy", among others.
