In the latest court hearing of the ongoing Relli case, rapper ASAP Rocky has been declared not guilty by the high court. The decision comes as a major relief to the artist, who had been facing charges of assault and was detained in a Swedish jail for weeks.

ASAP Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, was arrested after a street brawl broke out in Stockholm in June. The incident occurred when the rapper and his entourage were approached by two men who had been following them and allegedly harassing them. The situation quickly escalated, leading to a physical altercation.

The trial began on July 30th, and ASAP Rocky pleaded not guilty, stating that he had acted in self-defense.

However, prosecutors argued that the artist and his associates had used excessive force, making it a case of assault.

Throughout the trial, there was a significant amount of media attention and public interest in the case. Many celebrities and members of the music industry showed their support for ASAP Rocky, calling for his release. Even President Donald Trump got involved, as he personally appealed to the Swedish Prime Minister to help secure the rapper's release.

During the court hearing, witnesses were called to testify and present their version of events. Several videos of the incident were also shown, providing crucial evidence for both the prosecution and the defense.

In the end, the high court ruled in favor of ASAP Rocky, declaring him not guilty. The court stated that they found the artist's claims of self-defense to be credible and that the actions of the accused were within the boundaries of Swedish law.

This verdict comes as a significant victory for ASAP Rocky and his legal team, who have vigorously defended the rapper’s actions. Meanwhile, fans and supporters expressed their joy and relief upon hearing the news, with social media flooded with messages of congratulations and solidarity.

The decision also brings an end to a challenging period for the artist, who spent nearly a month in a Swedish jail before being released pending the trial's outcome.
