A man accused of over 30 sex crimes against women has appeared in court following new charges.
Samuel Rust, formerly of Boverton, near Llantwit Major, faces a total of over 30 charges, including rape and strangulation.
The 22 year-old was charged with a number of offences in May - he was previously remanded in custody with a trial due to begin on 9th December.
Gloucestershire Police say Rust now faces seven further sex offences against three women, including rape, two counts each of sexual assault and intentional strangulation, assault by penetration and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The alleged attacks are said to have happened in both South Wales and Gloucestershire.
Rust was further remanded by Cheltenham magistrates until next Thursday (14th November), when he is due to appear before a judge at Gloucester Crown Court
