DISGRACED rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs has been thrown into solitary confinement after shoving and punching a fellow inmate in prison.
The jailed music mogul, 56, is accused of sparking a mass brawl inside his federal lockup FCI Fort Dix, in New Jersey, after being insulted by a fellow inmate.
The pair began pushing each other before each throwing jabs, according to TMZ.
Prison staff quickly intervened to separate the men before throwing Diddy into solitary, the outlet reports.
FCI Fort Dix told TMZ: “We are not at liberty to disclose or provide internal information pertaining to any inmate in our custody.
“Such information would not be available for the public domain.”
The disgraced Bad Boy Records founder is currently serving a 50-month federal prison sentence on two counts of prostitution charges.
Last month, Diddy was accused of sexually assaulting a child actor during a networking party in 2007.
The accuser alleged that Diddy asked for a private chat about career opportunities before sexually assaulting him, according to court documents seen by the Daily Mail.
The man, who was a child at the time of the alleged assault, claimed Diddy performed a sex act on him.

He is suing Diddy and some agents, who he said had a duty to protect him, for damages.
Diddy’s rep Juda Engelmayer told the outlet: “The allegations from this so-called nameless child actor are false and ridiculous.
“He’s just another hater in a long list of people trying to get in on the money gravy train encouraged by personal injury lawyers.
“Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone – and that includes any child! These allegations will be disproved like all the rest.”
It comes after news broke that the rapper will be getting out of prison earlier than expected amid his battle to appeal his four-year sentence.
The hip-hop mogul will walk free a month and a half earlier than his previous release date of June 4, 2028.
He will now be released on April 25, 2028 according to Federal Bureau of Prisons records obtained by Page Six.
Diddy earned the early release after being accepted into a drug-abuse rehabilitation program in November.
The rapper’s lawyers have been trying to appeal the music mogul’s conviction since he was sentenced to four years in prison.
Last month, Diddy’s team claimed in court that his freak-offs were not a violation of law but amateur porn protected by the US Constitution.
Diddy was convicted of the Mann Act, which prohibits the transportation of people across state lines to engage in sexual acts.
The rapper’s appeal was heard in April, but a judgment has not yet been reached.
Diddy has previously denied all allegations made against him.
