Fighter Conor McGregor accused of raping woman in Dublin hotel

Nikita Ní Laimhín is claiming civil damages against the Irish mixed martial arts fighter and another man, alleging she was sexually assaulted in December 2018.

McGregor's lawyers told the court yesterday that Ní Laimhín, who has no automatic right to anonymity, is attempting extortion.

The fighter, nicknamed "Notorious", was in court to hear Justice Alexander Owens tell the jury that it is alleged Ní Laimhín was sexually assaulted by McGregor and James Lawrence on 9 December.

The judge said that it is alleged the pair had "in effect raped her".
