In a shocking turn of events, Sean “Diddy” Combs has been slapped with a new lawsuit that alleges he dangled a woman from a 17th-floor balcony during a heated confrontation. The suit, filed in Los Angeles by fashion designer Bryana "Bana" Bongolan, recounts the alleged incident dating back to 2016 at the residence of Combs' then-girlfriend, Casandra "Cassie" Ventura. This lawsuit is part of a troubling pattern of over two dozen accusations against the music mogul, which range from sexual assault and drugging to physical harm and intimidation.
Combs, facing federal charges related to racketeering and a sex trafficking operation, has firmly denied these allegations. His representation stated, “he firmly denies these serious allegations” and remains confident that they will prove to be unsubstantiated. According to the lawsuit, the storm began when Mr. Combs reportedly burst into Ventura's apartment where Ms. Bongolan was present. During the encounter, he purportedly confronted her while she was on the balcony, leading to claims of molestation and being physically lifted and dangled over the ledge.
The lawsuit describes Ms. Bongolan's desperate struggle against Combs' overpowering grip as he allegedly attempted to toss her off the balcony. It reports that Ventura intervened, and the confrontation escalated as Combs allegedly slammed Ms. Bongolan onto nearby patio furniture, attempting to regain control of the situation. Ms. Bongolan recalls feeling blindsided by the incident and seeking $10 million in damages, denouncing a series of threats and abusive behavior that characterized her interactions with Combs.
This recent legal struggle resonates with similar allegations made by Ms. Ventura in a 2023 lawsuit, where she described being subjected to abuse and threats. This previous suit, which was settled shortly after being filed, included troubling claims of abuse that mirror Ms. Bongolan's accusations. Throughout their professional relationship, Ms. Bongolan asserted that she endured a cycle of intimidation from Combs, originating from business collaborations in fashion and music.
Currently, Mr. Combs remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, having been denied bail on three separate occasions as he awaits trial on multiple charges. As this case unfolds, it casts a growing shadow over the music industry figure and raises serious concerns about his behavior and the gravity of the allegations against him.
