Woman who alleges rape against UFC star Conor McGregor claims she felt she would ‘Die’ during incident

Nikita Ni Laimhan (Hand), has told the high court in Dublin today during cross-examination how she feared for life during an incident with mixed martial arts fighter and UFC star, Conor McGregor — in which the sitting judge revealed the Dublin fighter had “in effect raped” her.

Hand, who appeared in the High Court earlier this year in a civil case taken against defendants, Conor McGregor as well as James Lawrence of Rafter’s Road in Drimnagh, alleged she was raped by the fighter following a Christmas party in the penthouse suite of the Beacon Hotel in Dublin back in December, 2018.
