MEN with balaclavas invaded the home of the woman whom a jury in a civil case found was raped by Conor McGregor, a court heard. The judge in the civil case heard the men had burst into her bedroom

Masked men broke into the home of Nikita Hand, then burst into her bedroom before being driven out by her partner, who suffered stab wounds. But details of the attack, which happened in June, were not revealed to the jury in the trial of Conor McGregor after the judge ruled it was irrelevant to the claim of assault.
