(Bloomberg) -- Stockholm's district court has granted a prosecutor's request for more time to conclude his preliminary investigation into assault allegations against American rapper A$AP Rocky, meaning he will remain in custody.
The court has extended the time to bring charges against the artist until 11 a.m. Swedish time on July 25, according to a statement on Friday.
"We have worked intensively with the investigation and need more time" in order to complete it, prosecutor Daniel Suneson said earlier.
