A 25-year-old man has appeared in court charges with two rapes.

Jerome Mills of Cowleigh Road, Malvern did not indicate pleas to either charge when he appeared before magistrates in Worcester on Thursday.

The alleged rapes are said to have happened in Malvern on July 28, 2019. Both offences are indictable-only and therefore could not be heard at the magistrates court.

Mark Hambling appeared for the prosecution. Mills was represented by Judith Kenney.

The next hearing will be at Worcester Crown Court on February 10 this year. Mills was bailed to attend that hearing.
