The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday by Fauziya “Ziya” Abashe. She states that she met DJ Akademiks in 2021, and was invited to his home in July 2022. When she arrived, according to the lawsuit, she was welcomed by two men “she didn’t expect to be there”.
As reported by the entertainment and media company Complex, Abashe claims that the two men spiked her drink before raping her on the pool deck. Then, at around 4 a.m., according to the lawsuit obtained by Complex, DJ Akademiks forcibly raped Abashe again.

Elsewhere in the lawsuit, Abashe claims that Akademiks later showed her the surveillance footage of the encounter with the two men on the pool deck. Akademiks, real name Livingston Allen, would later go on to say that Abashe was voluntarily “having an orgy with his friends at his home,” while maintaining that he never participated at all.
Abashe eventually went to the police who encouraged her to get a rape kit. She claims that they found traces of Akademiks’ sperm and took photos of bruises on her body.
From Complex:
Abashe claimed she chose to remain silent and didn’t press charges but changed her mind after the allegations came up at the end of 2023.
