A$AP Rocky expresses disappointment over assault trial final verdict
A$AP Rocky has revealed he's "disappointed" with the final verdict of his assault case in Sweden.
Yesterday (14 August) it was revealed that A$AP Rocky was found guilty of assaulting Mustafa Jafari in Sweden earlier this summer.
A$AP Rocky was detained in a Swedish jail for nearly a month as the investigation was carried out.
Despite the final verdict finding A$AP Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, guilty of the assault, the rapper won't receive any addition jail time.
Responding to the final verdict on Instagram, Mayers wrote, "I am of course disappointed by today's verdict. I want to say thanks again to all of my fans, friends, and everyone who showed me love during this difficult time. I'mma keep moving forward. Thank you to my team, my management, attorneys, label and everyone who advocated for justice.
