A man accused of raping two women in Brighton and sexually assaulting a third has been remanded in custody.

Michal Tejkowski, 27, from Maidstone, Kent appeared at Brighton Magistrates' Court today charged with the rape of 17-year-old girl in Dyke Road, Brighton on February 15.

A major investigation was launched after the attack, including an appeal on BBC's Crimewatch programme last month.

Tejkowski, who is from Poland, is also accused of two counts of raping a 25-year-old woman in a car park in Brighton on March 10, and sexually assaulting a 67-year-old woman in Maidstone on May 6.

He did not enter any pleas.

He was remanded in custody until a hearing at Lewes Crown Court on Friday, August 19.
