The plaintiff claims he was sodomized by Combs after being drugged
Sean "Diddy" Combs was accused of sexual assault in a complaint by a man who says he was 39 at the time of the alleged abuse.
The unidentified plaintiff claims that he was drugged by Combs during a party at a home in New York City in 2022, according to a complaint filed in New York federal court and obtained by PEOPLE.
The plaintiff alleges in the complaint that he attended the party with friends and was given a drink that made him disoriented and lose control of his body. He then blacked out.
Upon regaining consciousness, the man says he found himself in a "dark bedroom with black walls, on a bed with black sheets," according to the complaint. The plaintiff alleges he then realized Combs "on top of him, sodomizing him."
The man claims he then fought off the music mogul and fled to a bathroom before leaving the party.
The latest complaint is one of five filed on Tuesday, Nov. 19, by clients represented by Tony Buzbee, a high-profile attorney based in Houston. Previously, Buzbee had announced that he was representing more than 100 clients accusing Combs of misconduct.
The latest filings include one from another man who claims Combs raped him in Miami in 2022 and an 18-year-old woman who alleges she was drugged and made to perform oral sex on Combs and other unnamed men in 2001. while the mogul sprayed champagne on her.
A sixth, hand-written complaint filed on Nov. 19 was mailed by an inmate currently serving a prison sentence for manslaughter in Upstate New York. The man claims he was a minor in 2018 when he was allegedly drugged by his own mother and raped by Combs.

Combs has denied committing any sexual abuse.
