Miami Beach takes back its key to the city from Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, as the city’s vice mayor says he is ‘disgusted’ by the allegations against him.

The City of Miami Beach has officially stripped Sean “Diddy” Combs of his key to the city that he was awarded back in 2015. The mayor still has to certify the resolution, which is forthcoming. Earlier this year, Miami canceled Diddy Day —which was supposed to be October 13.

CBS Miami spoke to Miami Beach’s Vice Mayor Alex Fernandez about the decision, to which he called allegations against the disgraced music mogul “disgusting,” “dirty,” and “inhumane.”

“Justice must be served, and this is a small way in which our city can grant some justice to the victims of the gross acts that have been committed,” said Fernandez.

Combs was awarded with the ceremonial key by then-mayor Philip Levine in 2015. Last month, it was reported that Miami Beach city officials were in the final stages in their negotiations to take back their key. Mayor Steven Weiner and the city commission unanimously voted on the revocation on October 30.
