According to the New York Police Department, Hip Hop Mogul Diddy is not presently being investigated for sexual assault at this time.
This comes after TMZ revealed that Diddy’s birth name, Sean Combs, is the subject of an ongoing investigation by the New York Police Department.
Less than twenty-four hours had passed after Diddy’s ex-girlfriend and former performer Cassie launched a vicious lawsuit against him before the NYPD filed their report.
The NYPD, however, informed XXL in a follow-up statement that no such investigation was in progress.
“There is no such investigation, at present,” a spokesperson said. “The NYPD always treats allegations of sexual assault and rape extremely seriously, and urges anyone who has been a victim to file a police report so that support and services can be offered to survivors and a comprehensive investigation can be conducted.”
In a previous statement to XXL, the NYPD had said: “The NYPD takes sexual assault and rape cases extremely seriously, and urges anyone who has been a victim to file a police report so we can perform a comprehensive investigation, and offer support and services to survivors.”
In a lawsuit filed on Thursday, Diddy was accused by Cassie of numerous crimes including, rape, sex trafficking, and physical abuse.
