It’s witch-hunt’ – P.Diddy’s Lawyer Slams US Rapper’s Houses Raid

Published

on

P.Diddy’s lawyer, Aaron Dyer, has fiercely condemned the recent raid on the rapper’s US residences, branding it a “witch-hunt” driven by baseless accusations.

The raid, conducted by US Federal agents, was prompted by allegations of P.Diddy’s involvement in sexual misconduct with minors and other crimes.

In a statement, Dyer denounced the use of excessive force during the raid, which he described as an “unprecedented ambush” orchestrated alongside a media frenzy. He argued that these actions amount to a premature rush to judgment, perpetuating a witch hunt fuelled by unfounded accusations made in civil lawsuits.

P.Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, has been targeted by multiple civil lawsuits portraying him as a violent sexual predator who allegedly used substances to incapacitate victims.

Despite facing four such lawsuits spanning several decades, Combs maintains his innocence and vigorously denies all allegations.

Dyer reiterated that Combs has not been criminally convicted and emphasised his unwavering determination to vindicate himself. “There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name,” he affirmed.
