Images of the injuries a man sustained after allegedly being beaten by A$AP Rocky and his crew in Sweden were released.
The man, identified as an Afghan immigrant named Mustafa Jafari, showed officers wounds on both the right and left side of his head and on his legs. According to reports, Jafari said he believed his nose was broken after he claims he was beaten with bottles and kicked on his head.
Messages between Rocky and his manager John Ehmann on WhatsApp were used in the investigation. The messages show Ehmann speaking with Rocky’s team and claiming that the footage of the situation showing that Jafari was the aggressor would acquit the rapper of any crimes.
Rocky is being charged with assault in the incident, as authorities believe that footage shows the rapper holding a bottle that was allegedly used to hit Jafari in the attack.
