Who is Nikita Hand?




The 35-year-old lives in Dublin and used to work as a hairdresser before the incident, as per the BBC. Hand told the court that she has not been able to work since due to her mental health.

Reaction after the verdict

She thanked her family including her daughter, Freya.


"She has given me so much strength and courage over the last six years throughout this nightmare to keep on pushing forward for justice," said Hand.


"I want to show Freya and every other girl and boy that you can stand up for yourself if something happens to you - no matter who the person is - and justice will be served," she added.

McGregor to file an appeal




In a statement on X, McGregor said he intended to appeal.


"I am disappointed that the jury did not hear all the evidence that the DPP reviewed. I am with my family now, focused on my future," he said.


"Thank you to all my support worldwide," he added.


McGregor is one of the biggest stars in the history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) mixed martial arts circuit, formerly holding the featherweight and lightweight titles.
