The two men involved in an altercation with A$AP Rocky and his crew, which led to the rapper being detained in Sweden, were under investigation for suspected assault and molestation.
The Swedish Prosecution Authority announced in a press release, “The preliminary investigation continues regarding the American artist who is detained by the Stockholm District Court in Sweden on suspicion of assault in Stockholm. There is also a preliminary investigation in the case concerning the aggrieved party who is suspected of molestation and assault.”
Officials clarified that the term “molestation” is not sexual in nature, and is being used to describe a crime in which a suspect “physically attacks someone or exposes someone to disruptive contacts or exposes someone to other ruthless actions.” The penalty for the crime is one year.
As for A$AP Rocky, he will remain behind bars until July 19, when officials will decide to prosecute or extend his detention to complete the investigation.
