On Dec. 3, starmagazine.com broke the exclusive news about the arrest of rap superstar Nicki’s 37-year-old brother, Jelani Maraj, on horrifying charges involving sex with a minor. He was processed and photographed (above) by the authorities during the arrest two days earlier.

Jelani was freed after posting $100,000 bail. His next court date will be set in the near future.  Stay with Star for this developing story!
