US rapper and entertainment mogul Shawn Carter a.k.a Jay Z has denied allegations he and fellow rapper Sean Diddy Combs drugged and raped a 13-years-old girl back in the year 2000.
In a law suit filed by a Houston based lawyer Tony Buzbee, the assault allegedly happened after the girl was driven to an MTV Video Music Awards after-party.
The federal lawsuit was originally filed in October in the Southern District of New York, listing Combs as a defendant. It was refiled Sunday to include Carter.
Jay Z called the allegations “idiotic” in a lengthy statement Sunday evening and alleged that Buzbee was engaged in unprofessional behavior.
“These allegations are so heinous in nature that I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not a civil one!! “Whomever would commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away, would you not agree?” Carter said in a statement to NBC News.
“These alleged victims would deserve real justice if that were the case.
“You have made a terrible error in judgment thinking that all ‘celebrities’ are the same,” the father of three wrote. “I’m not from your world. I’m a young man who made it out of the project of Brooklyn… We have very strict codes and honor. We protect children.”
