Sean “Diddy” Combs lost a bid to prevent government officials from leaking information to the media as he remains behind bars on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

On Friday, New York Judge Arun Subramanian denied a gag order request filed by the disgraced rapper’s legal team, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.

Subramanian insisted that federal agents, investigators and Combs’ team must follow the laws forbidding them from leaking grand jury proceedings that can meddle with a fair trial.
