American rapper Sean Love Combs, better known as Diddy, will remain in custody pending his trial after a New York federal judge denied his $50 million bail proposal on Tuesday, September 17, 2024.
The judge remanded the musician in custody after prosecutors argued he was a “serious flight risk”.
The 54-year-old music mogul was arrested on Monday evening over alleged racketeering conspiracy, s+x tr@fficking, among others. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
CNN reports Combs will appeal the decision to hold him without bail in front of US District Court Judge Andrew Carter on Wednesday afternoon. If the appeal is denied, Combs will be remanded back to the detention center.
