The Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs allegations and the claims of his alleged victims

One of the world's biggest rap stars, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, is behind bars accused of kidnapping and sex crimes. Expected in court tomorrow, he's fighting to be released on bail. Katie Razzall speak to a lawyer representing a singer who's suing him.
A statement from Mr Combs' lawyers said: “Mr. Combs is shocked and disappointed by this lawsuit. In an attempt to rewrite history, Dawn Richard has now manufactured a series of false claims all in the hopes of trying to get a pay day - conveniently timed to coincide with her album release and press tour. If Ms. Richard had such a negative experience with Making the Band and Danity Kane, she would not have chosen to continue working directly with Mr. Combs for Dirty Money, nor would she have returned for the Making the Band reboot in 2020 or agreed to be featured on The Love Album last year. It’s unfortunate that Ms. Richard has cast their 20-year friendship aside to try and get money from him, but Mr. Combs is confidently standing on truth and looks forward to proving that in court."
