Doja Cat’s older brother has been accused of ongoing abuse against the rapper.
Doja Cat, 28, has been the victim of abuse from her older brother, Raman Dalithando Dlamini, 30. The abuse has allegedly been ongoing both physically and verbally.
Claims about the abuse come from Doja’s mom, Deborah Elizabeth Sawyer, who recently filed a restraining order against Raman for Doja’s safety.
In the legal documents, Deborah accused Raman of knocking Doja’s teeth out. Though Doja has yet to speak on the abuse, fans have rallied to support the “Paint the Town Red” rapper.
Doja Cat’s brother’s abuse called “degrading and demeaning”
In legal documents obtained by TMZ, Doja’s mom Deborah claimed that both she and Doja have been on the receiving end of Raman’s physical and verbal abuse.
In Deborah’s claims, she said that Raman’s abuse towards Doja is “very degrading and demeaning.” She also claimed that Raman has repeatedly made Doja feel “unsafe and traumatized.”
Deborah also alleged that Raman has stolen and damaged Doja’s belongings as well as caused her to have bruises and cuts in the last year.

Though Deborah filed for a restraining order against Raman for both she and Doja, the judge ruled that Doja must appear in court and file her own restraining order if she so pleases. However, Deborah was granted court-ordered protection from her son, Raman.
Doja has yet to speak on the abuse claims, but that hasn’t stopped fans from giving an outpouring of support for her, “I hope that she finds peace… best wishes to her.”
And, “2024… year of justice. I hope she gets just that.”
Another fan also mentioned how “odd” relationship dynamics can be, as Doja has more resources than her brother, yet he’s the one gaining dominance over her.
Though Doja hasn’t filed a restraining order against her brother, time will tell just how serious the accusations are now that details have been revealed.
