Lawyers for Conor McGregor dramatically withdrew a bid to introduce new evidence in his civil rape case appeal. Evidence included allegations made by Samantha O'Reilly and Steven Cummins – former neighbours of Ms Nikita Hand.
Ms Hand’s counsel John Gordon said his side was in ‘shock’ at the late withdrawal of the fresh evidence application.
In her affidavit, Ms O’Reilly had claimed she was woken by sounds of “screaming and shouting” from Ms Hand’s house.
Looking from her window, she said she could see “Ste’s arms moving up and down as if he was hitting Nikita”.
“I also saw him moving his hips in a way that indicated to me that he was kicking her,” she claimed.
In an affidavit, Ms Hand dismissed this account. "My ex-partner Stephen Redmond [known as 'Ste'] did not assault me on the night of December 9/10, 2018, and never assaulted me in the course of our relationship, or since," she said. "I don't want to speculate on why Samantha and Steven are making up these lies."
Ms Hand’s counsel John Gordon said his side was in “shock” at the late withdrawal of the fresh evidence application.
He said it was "not appropriate" to dress up the withdrawal of the application in such a way.
The barrister said Ms Hand had been “put through the wringer” after the allegation, which she denounced as “lies”, was outlined in court and reported in the newspapers.
Today on the Indo Daily, Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Shane Phelan, Legal Affairs Editor with the Irish Independent, to unpack a busy opening day in Conor McGregor's civil rape appeal.

When 78-year-old Sonia ‘Sunny’ Jacobs, along with her carer Kevin Kelly (31) died in a house fire at the Connemara home she called her “sanctuary", it seemed like a tragically ironic end for a celebrated activist. But Jacobs was no stranger to life's juxtapositions. The well-liked and peaceful woman spent five years on death row in the US before her conviction over the murder of two police officers in Florida in 1976 was overturned after procedural errors were identified. Now, as a Florida inmate speaks out about the circumstances leading to her incarceration, we ask who was the real Sunny Jacobs? Host: Kevin Doyle Guest: Eavan Murray

Six months into the new Government, and all seems to be oddly quiet in the world of Irish politics. Yes, we’ve had the furore over the Regional Independent Group’s support for the Coalition, Verona Murphy’s survival of no-confidence and the ruckus that followed Michael Lowry’s memorable two-finger salute. But since the dust settled on all the “ruaille buaille” of those rocky first days in January, business has been unusually quiet in Dáil Éireann. So, what has this Government actually achieved so far? Has it lived up to its numerous election promises? Or is it simply too early to call our elected officials to account?

In early June, a shooting took place near a Dublin playground in broad daylight. There were no injuries, but a clear message was sent. Among the group that was targeted were associates of one of Irelands most feared crime bosses, Brian “King Ratt” Rattigan. Once one of Ireland’s most notorious mobsters, Rattigan's rise was as dramatic as the Crumlin-Drimnagh feud he was at the center of. But now, 4 years after his release from prison, his name is surfacing again and so is the violence. Host; Tabitha Monahan, Guests; Robin Schiller and Nicola Tallant
