Protesters in Dublin marched in "solidarity" with Nikita Hand, the woman who accused Conor McGregor of raping her in a hotel six years ago and won her claim against him for damages in a High Court civil case.

Several hundred people have marched in Dublin in support of the woman who won a civil rape case against Conor McGregor. On Friday, a jury at the High Court in Dublin found the mixed martial arts fighter had assaulted Nikita Hand by raping her in a hotel in Dublin in December 2018.

Rape victim Nikita Hand is faced with the prospect of having to pay the legal costs for Conor McGregor's co-accused James Lawrence.
