Kayla claimed Soulja told her she was going to die that night. Later, she said Soulja instructed his male assistant to tie her to a chair using an extension cord.
In her suit, Kayla said she was held hostage for hours. She said the male assistant let her go after demanding she performs a sexual act on him.
Kayla said she suffered 3 fractured ribs and a bruised face from the alleged attack. She called the police after escaping the room.
The police performed a raid on Soulja’s home which led to him being arrested for gun possession. The weapons found triggered a probation violation for Soulja who was then sentenced to 240 days in jail. He was released before serving his entire sentence.
Prosecutors never charged Soulja over the alleged assault.
Soulja has denied all allegations of wrongdoing in the civil suit. He said Kayla’s injuries were caused by third parties outside his control.
The case is ongoing.
