President Donald Trump stated that he would consider the possibility of pardoning renowned music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs, who is on trial in New York on charges of racketeering and human trafficking for sexual exploitation, reports the Washington Post.

Trump said at a press conference that he has no personal ties to Combs, but is willing to consider all the facts in the case. Combs himself has pleaded not guilty and remains in custody pending the court's decision by July 4.

«I don't know, I would definitely look at the facts. If I believe someone has been treated poorly, then whether I like it or not, it won't matter»

Once, Combs and Trump were friends and partners, but their relationship soured when Combs supported Biden. Rapper 50 Cent expressed concern over the possibility of Combs not being pardoned.

Witnesses in the case spoke of physical and sexual violence, but the defense considers the allegations unsubstantiated. A court decision is expected soon.
