Billionaire Leon Black is being accused of flying a Russian model against her consent "to satisfy the sex needs" of his best buddy, Jeffrey Epstein.
The shocking claims come in the latest filing in the lawsuit against the ex-CEO brought on by former model Guzel Ganieva.
According to Ganieva, Black "made multiple comments to Ms. Ganieva about Epstein’s sexual proclivities" and told her that Epstein flew “very young girls” on his private jet.
She alleges that Black said “he [Epstein] takes care of the little girls” and was “doing a great job with it.” The suit does not specify if any of the alleged girls were under 18 years old.
The boldest claim Ganieva makes is that Black flew her “to Florida without her consent, to satisfy the sex needs of Epstein, his ‘best friend.’”
The model says the alleged incident happened in October 2008 when she agreed to a lunch with Black, but when the billionaire arrived, he reportedly told her they were flying to Florida to meet an unnamed friend.
Once they boarded the private jet, Black allegedly informed Ganieva that they were meeting his "friend" Epstein.
The model says that when they arrived at Epstein's Palm Beach mansion, things took a dark turn.
