The Bulgarian Roma musician who was jailed for pimping last month is facing a new trial Monday.

Kondyo, a former ethno-music celebrity on the local scene, was found guilty on pimping charges and sentenced to ten years in April.

Monday will see him back in courtroom, again to face women trafficking charges.

Legal proceedings against the 42-year-old star began after two teenage women filed complaints against him.
