SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — A judge on Thursday conditionally released U.S. rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine after he was arrested in the Dominican Republic last week on domestic violence charges.
After the hearing, Tekashi 6ix9ine’s attorney, Waldo Pimentel, accused prosecutors of “fabricating” evidence against his client.
Meanwhile, prosecutor Ana Andrea Villa Camacho explained why she had requested that Tekashi 6ix9ine remain held.
It is the second time that Hernández is arrested in the Dominican Republic.
Tekashi 6ix9ine had a multiplatinum hit song, “Fefe,” with Nicki Minaj in 2018.
