Conor McGregor found guilty of raping Nikita Hand in Dublin

In Dublin, Ireland, several hundred demonstrators gathered in support of Nikita Hand, following her civil rape case victory against mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor. The High Court jury found McGregor guilty of assaulting Hand in a hotel in December 2018, leading to an order for him to pay approximately €250,000 in damages. The protest, organized by ROSA, a socialist feminist movement, coincided with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Protesters expressed anger over the initial decision of the Director of Public Prosecutions not to pursue a criminal case due to insufficient evidence, emphasizing that many victims of sexual violence face similar neglect in their pursuit of justice.
