According to several American media outlets, music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested yesterday at the Park Hyatt hotel on West 57th Street. According to NBC in a federal indictment unsealed today, Diddy was charged with racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.

Combs has faced a wave of lawsuits — one as recent as last week — accusing him of sexual assault and misconduct in the past year. The charges against Diddy allege he “threatened and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires” for years, federal prosecutors said.

Diddy created “a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in” various crimes, such as “sex trafficking, forced labour, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice,” court documents said.

A federal indictment was unsealed against Diddy, charging him with three felony counts. He’s been accused of racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. The artist, previously known as Sean Combs, has entered a New York City courtroom to hear the charges.

Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, arrived at the Manhattan federal court and briefly spoke at a large media gathering outside.

“He came to New York to basically engage the court system and start the case, and it will start today and he’s going to plead not guilty,” Agnifilo said. “He’s going to fight this with all of his energy and all of his might and the full confidence of his lawyers.”
