Accused of rape, UFC’s Abdul Razak Alhassan allowed by judge to remove GPS monitor

UFC welterweight Abdul Razak Alhassan, 33, was indicted on two counts of sexual assault on September 24th. Alhassan was arrested in April after he was accused of driving two women home from a bar and raping them inside one of their homes. Since his arrest, Alhassan has been free on a $20,000 bond and was required to wear a GPS monitor at times.

Alhassan was permitted to remove his monitor so he could fight at UFC 228 on September 8th. Since then Alhassan’s lawyer, Brandon Barnett, has argued that Alhassan should not have to wear his GPS monitor due to how the device interferes with his client’s career.
