New allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs have surfaced, with a man accusing the imprisoned rapper of drugging and raping him in a New York nightclub in 2012.
According to a court filing, the man who was 17 at the time, paid a bouncer to enter the club and was invited to Combs’ private table, where he was given multiple shots of vodka.
The plaintiff claims that after consuming the drinks, he “began to become hazy and disoriented” and felt himself “losing consciousness and control of his body”.
Combs has consistently denied the allegations made against him in a number of civil lawsuits, and has previously labelled them “sickening”. The BBC has sought a response from his team on the new allegations.
Referred to in court documents as John Doe, the plaintiff alleges he was led to a back room at the SoHo club where people were using drugs and engaging with escorts.
He said he realised the drinks he was given were spiked and “impacting his faculties”.
In his statement, the plaintiff says he came in and out of consciousness and while he was aware of what was happening, he could not stop it.
The statement alleges the “defenceless” plaintiff was raped by Combs in the back room of the nightclub.
In a statement to the BBC in response to separate federal criminal charges, Combs’ lawyer said: “In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone – man or woman, adult or minor.”
The new allegations come as another rapper, Kanye West, urged President Donald Trump to grant a pardon to Combs before his upcoming trial.
The 24-time Grammy winner voiced his support on X, posting a direct plea to Trump: “FREE PUFF,” West wrote, followed by another post tagging the president: “@realDonaldTrump PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF.”
In early February, a lawyer representing accusers said there were plans to file more than 10 additional civil suits against Combs.
Combs is currently facing more than 30 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and misconduct.
He has been held in a New York jail awaiting a federal criminal trial on sex trafficking and racketeering.
