Italian investigation into Conor McGregor’s alleged DJ attack could take two years

Last October former UFC champion Conor McGregor was accused of committing an unprovoked attack against Italian celebrity Francesco Facchinetti. Facchinetti, a DJ who appears in Italy’s versions of The X Factor and The Voice, pressed charges against McGregor claiming the fighter broke his nose.

According to Facchinetti’s lawyer Matteo Sergio Calori the police investigation into this matter is still ongoing (per Irish Mirror). Calori has also stated that a resolution in this case could be a long ways away.

“The preliminary investigations under Italian law could take up to two years,” he said.
