Lawyers of embattled United States, US, music executive, Sean Combs popularly known as P. Diddy, have described the raid on his residence as a \u201cwitch-hunt\u201d.<\/p>\n
Aaron Dyer said the raid on P.Diddy\u2019s residence was a witch-hunt based on accusations without merit.<\/p>\n
US Federal agents had raided the residence of the rap mogul following allegations of his alleged sexual involvement with underage girls and other atrocities.<\/p>\n
However, a statement by Dyer said: \u201cYesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr Combs\u2019 residences.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis unprecedented ambush \u2014 paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence \u2014 leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Combs is the target of several civil lawsuits that characterise him as a violent sexual predator who used alcohol and drugs to subdue his victims.<\/p>\n
He has faced at least four lawsuits from people who say he sexually abused them, with allegations dating back decades.<\/p>\n
Combs, who has not been criminally convicted, denies all the allegations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere 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,\u201d Dyer added.<\/p>\n
