The Mililani man who allegedly attacked two teenage girls in separate incidents last week made his first appearance in court today.

District Court Judge Faye Koyanagi set a preliminary hearing for Nicholas Anduha at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in District Court.
Anduha, 20, appeared in shorts and a T-shirt, with his legs shackled and under the watchful eyes of prison guards.
Anduha is charged with seven counts of first-degree sexual assault, one count of felony kidnapping and sexual assault in the third degree.
He waived the reading of his charges and the judge reaffirmed his $500,000 bail.
Anduha is accused of being involved in separate incidents in Mililani in which 15-year-old girls told police they were abducted by a male in his late teens or early 20s. In one incident, the girl said she was kidnapped and sexually assaulted over a 6 1/2-hour period. She said she was walking on Huo Place to a friend's house when a man grabbed her and forced her into a white van shortly before 7 a.m. She told police the man ordered her to lie down on the van's floor as he drove around Wahiawa. He stopped at a park in Wahiawa, where he sexually assaulted her, according to police records.

In the other case, a 15-year-old girl said she was walking with her boyfriend at 3:30 a.m. in Mililani when they were confronted by a male with a knife. Police said the assailant ordered the boyfriend to leave. The man then placed his arm on the girl's shoulder and held the knife to her stomach.
