A$AP Bari Sues Sexual Assault Accuser for Defamation

EXCLUSIVE

A$AP Bari, one of the co-founders of the A$AP Mob, is going after the woman accusing him of sexual assault … claiming she wove a web of lies to get him to pay up big-time.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ … Bari says his accuser only started alleging sexual assault AFTER she lawyered up. A$AP claims on the night of the incident in July 2017, two police officers showed up to the London hotel and interviewed her … asking if she had been sexually assaulted.

In docs, Bari says the woman — who’s suing as Jane Doe — told cops she hadn’t been sexually assaulted but was worried about a naked video of her leaking onto the Internet. Bari claims Doe was relieved when she saw one of the cops delete the 10-second video Bari recorded. He claims Doe told police, “seeing the video being deleted was like having a weight lifted” off her shoulders.

As for the video that eventually went viral exposing Doe … Bari claims that video was taken without his knowledge by a third person in the room when Doe hooked up with Bari’s assistant. Bari’s suing for defamation and civil extortion for allegedly pressuring him into settling … or else.

TMZ broke the story … Doe is already suing Bari for more than $1 mil for the alleged attack.
