The unidentified woman claimed she was sexually assaulted by Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein at Epstein’s Florida mansion in 1996.
She alleged that she was abducted from her home by a stranger and later regained consciousness in the presence of Weinstein and Jay Z while the producer allegedly assaulted her.
The woman further claimed she was abducted on seven occasions, each time waking up in what she described as an “opulent indoor setting”.
She alleged that she suffered sexual abuse on multiple occasions, adding that Epstein participated in some of the assaults.
The document also stated that the alleged victim had no permanent address at the time and moved between hotels.
In a separate claim, the woman alleged that she was assaulted again in 2007 at a party attended by Weinstein and rapper Pusha T.
No charges have however been filed against Jay-Z, Pusha T or Weinstein in connection with any Epstein-related offences.
