Nick Diaz’s girlfriend alleges UFC fighter was drugged, kidnapped

UFC veteran Nick Diaz’s girlfriend claims the fighter is allegedly being held against his will in Mexico.

On Friday, Diaz’s longtime girlfriend uploaded an alarming post about the MMA star on Instagram. The post claimed that Diaz, who is of Mexican descent, was “forcibly taken” by a relative and kidnapped across the border in Mexico. She alleged that Diaz was “drugged” and has since made several failed attempts to escape his supposed holding location inside a Mexican drug rehab facility.

Diaz has been linked to substance abuse issues in the past.

“Nick has been forcibly taken by his cousin and transported across the border into Mexico, where he is confined in a rehabilitation facility against his will,” wrote Diaz’s girlfriend.

“He was drugged during this process and has made numerous attempts to escape, but the authorities consistently return him to the facility. Communication with him is severely restricted; I am unable to speak with him or receive updates directly. All information must be relayed through a man named Ruben, who is responsible for his placement in the facility. Nick does not wish to remain at the facility; he desires to return home to California and attend a drug rehabilitation program there. He is also seeking to understand who has the authority to keep him confined in Mexico against his wishes.”
