Sean 'Diddy' Combs' alleged crimes are reportedly set to be probed in an upcoming documentary.

The shamed rapper, 55, has been languishing in New York's notoriously tough Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn since September awaiting trial on charges including racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution - all of which denies.

The Sun has now reported Channel 4 is joining forces with Lion TV to examine the charges against the Bad Boy Records founder.

It comes after the broadcaster aired a string of documentaries on the controversies swirling around Russell Brand, Andrew Tate and Marilyn Manson.

A TV insider told The Sun: "As the clock ticks towards Diddy's trial, it gives an opportunity for those yet to have their voices heard in this case to speak up and give their testimony.

"This in-depth programme will dive into all the charges, the highs and lows of Diddy's success and what went on behind the scenes at his infamous White Parties.

"It will no doubt produce some very shocking revelations."

Combs' trial is due to start on 5 May, and Channel 4's series 'Diddy: In Plain Sight' is expected to air later this year, The Sun added.

It follows an announcement by Netflix that they have also been making a documentary about the fallen star, titled 'Diddy Do It?'

Other shows about the rapper include Peacock's 'The Making of a Bad Boy', TMZ's 'The Downfall of Diddy' and HBO's 'The Fall of Diddy', which is due to be shown in the US this week.

Along with the federal charges facing Combs, he has also been hit with scores of civil cases against him from men and women alleging he subjected them to horrific drug-rapes and abuse.

Much of the apparent abuse centres around Combs' now-infamous 'Freak-Off' and 'White Parties', where victims are said to have been put into stupors by spiked drinks.
