A teenager has plead guilty to the rape of two women near the Taranaki town of Inglewood.
Tony Adamson was arrested late Saturday morning after attacks, which occurred on Friday night and early Saturday morning.
The 19-year-old appeared in New Plymouth District Court today, where he admitted charges of aggravated robbery, kidnapping, rape, two counts of unlawful sexual connection and committing burglary with a weapon.
Adamson appeared unkempt in court, with a partially shaven head and a scattering of long braids and bare feet.
Newstalk ZB reported that he gave a photographer the fingers.
Judge Allan Roberts denied an application for interim name suppression and Adamson was remanded in custody until August 29.
