Popular American rapper, Sean “Diddy” Combs has been arrested by federal agents.

The music mogul was apprehended on Monday night at a Manhattan hotel in New York.

According to sources, Combs, who had been staying at the hotel for several weeks, was reportedly taken by surprise during the arrest.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in New York confirmed the arrest, saying that it was based on a sealed indictment from the Southern District of New York.

While the specific charges remain undisclosed, authorities plan to unseal the indictment soon.

Combs’ legal representative, Marc Agnifilo, expressed disappointment over the arrest, saying that the Diddy had cooperated with the investigation.

Agnifilo revealed that Comb has had a long-standing reputation as a successful entrepreneur, philanthropist, and family man, while denying any criminal behaviour.

“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

“He is an imperfect person but he Is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court,” the attorney said.

This arrest is coming after a series of lawsuits, including one last week, accusing Combs of sexual misconduct.

Combs settled a lawsuit filed by his former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, in November, though the settlement terms were not disclosed.

Combs has consistently denied all allegations against him.

The Nigerian social media space has been buzzing after reports about controversial singer, Darlington Achakpo better known as Speed Darlington regaining his freedom went viral.
A post shared online by Speed Darlington’s lawyer, Stan Alieke has sparked a frenzy on social media. In the post shared by Akpi’s lawyer, the controversial personality was seen sitting in the office of his client along with two other men.

Recall that Akpi’s arrest was instigated by Grammy Award winner, Burna Boy, on the grounds of defamation and libel. In Burna Boy’s petition against Akpi, he accused the rapper of alleging he was gay and sharing a sexual relationship with American music mogul, Diddy.

The Grammy winner noted that the rapper used innuendos and play-on-words to target him and defame his character. After spending nearly two months in jail, Speed Darlington is finally free and below is an excerpt of the statement shared by his lawyer on his handle:
“Delighted to announce that our client, Mr Darlington Achakpo Aka Speed Darlington (Akpi) has regained his freedom after two months of illegal incarceration.

For the record, as his team of lawyers, we will be exploring every angle of the law to ensure that he gets justice for his fundamental human right which was deprived of him by the Nigerian Police Force and for the unfair/ unjust treatment he was subjected to.

Mr Achakpo extends his gratitude to everyone who threw in their support and Special thanks to my colleagues, Mr Marshal Abubakar Esq, Barr Deji Adeyanju, Barr Hamza Nuh, and Barr David. ~ Freedom cometh by struggle.”

Popular social media commentator and lawyer, Deji Adeyanju who also worked on Speed Darlington’s case also confirmed the rapper’s release on his Twitter handle, with a tweet that reads:
“Speed Darlington is out from Kuje prison.”
