A man is behind bars after police allege he detained a woman in Canberra, raped her and strangled her until she was unconscious.
The 28-year-old appeared in the ACT Magistrates Court via audio-visual link on Friday, when he was charged with nine offences he allegedly committed earlier in the week.
Defence lawyer Tom Taylor entered not guilty pleas to all charges, which included sexual intercourse without consent, unlawful confinement, strangling, suffocating and several assaults.
