In brief

In a recent lawsuit filed in Los Angeles, fashion designer Bryana "Bana" Bongolan alleges that Sean “Diddy” Combs dangled her from the 17th-floor balcony of an apartment during a confrontation in 2016. This incident, which took place at the home of Diddy's then-girlfriend, Casandra "Cassie" Ventura, is part of over two dozen lawsuits against the music mogul, accusing him of multiple offenses including sexual assault and drugging individuals. Diddy has denied these allegations vehemently.

According to Bongolan, the altercation began when Diddy began banging on the apartment door. Upon entering and confronting her, the lawsuit claims he engaged in physical misconduct before lifting her over the balcony ledge. Bongolan, who weighed approximately 100 pounds at the time, attempted to resist, fearing for her life. The suit contends that Ventura intervened and that Mr. Combs forcibly pulled Bongolan back onto the patio. Representing Diddy, a spokesperson stated confidence in the judicial process and labeled the allegations as "without merit."The lawsuit seeks $10 million in damages, indicating a pattern of intimidation and violence throughout Bongolan's professional interactions with Diddy. This distressing incident mirrors prior allegations made by Ventura, who accused Diddy of similar abusive behavior. Meanwhile, Diddy remains in detention in New York, having been denied bail multiple times as legal proceedings unfold.
