Sean “Diddy” Combsis facing more accusations of sexual assault and rape.

On Monday, Oct. 14, Houston-based attorney Tony Buzbee, who says he is representing 120 people accusing the Bad Boys Records founder of sexual misconduct, filed six new complaints on behalf of two women and four men in the Southern District of New York,NBC Newswas first to report.

The woman alleges that Combs threatened to “have them both killed” before he raped her, NBC News reports.

The event was “packed with high-profile guests,” the complaint alleges, when Combs approached the plaintiff while she danced with friends and asked to speak with her privately.

Alone in a bathroom, Combs began kissing the plaintiff, she alleges in the complaint. When she asked him to slow down, Combs allegedly “advanced aggressively,” striking her, slamming her head against the wall, causing her to fall to the floor, according to the complaint.

After hitting her again, Combs allegedly raped her while she lay on the floor, the complaint claims.

Afterward, Combs “adjusted his clothing in a nonchalant manner and threatened Plaintiff, saying, ‘You better not tell anyone about this or you will disappear,’ leaving Plaintiff terrified for her life,” the complaint alleges.

In another complaint, a man alleges that Combs sexually assaulted him in 1998 when he was 16 and was invited to one of the mogul’s White Parties in the Hamptons. He alleges that Combs took him to a private area and told him to “drop his pants,” asking, ‘Don’t you want to break into the business?"

Combs “grabbed John Doe’s penis and genitals with his hand” and began “squeezing” them, the complaint alleges. Combs told the teen his “people would be in touch,” it alleges.

On Oct. 1, Buzbee announced in a press conference that he was representing more than 100 accusers who had come forward alleging that Combs had sexually assaulted them.

In a video interview withLaw & Crimeon Oct. 2, Buzbee claimed that 12,000 people called a hotline he set up for accusers in the first 24 hours.

Buzbee’s announcement of the upcoming lawsuits against Combs included allegations that he had abused children,including a 9-year-old boywho claims that he was sexually assaulted while auditioning at a studio in New York City.

Combs’ attorney and representatives did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s requests for comment.In response to previous accusations of sexual assault against Combs, the music mogul’s attorney Erica Wolff wrote in a statement to PEOPLE, “As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus. That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.”
