He was arrested on Monday in a hotel lobby in Manhattan, but the specific charges he faces have not been disclosed to the media till now.

Marc Agnifilo, Combs’ attorney expressed disappointment in the prosecution, emphasizing that Combs is not just a cultural icon and philanthropist, but also cooperative with the investigation.

Recently, Combs publicly acknowledged his past actions and committed to personal improvement through therapy and rehabilitation.
