A HARBOUR Island man was fined on Friday to violating his bail conditions while awaiting trial for allegedly raping two female tourists in 2018.

Senior Magistrate Anishka Isaacs arraigned Julian Stewart, 33, on four counts of violating bail conditions.

Stewart had been granted bail on charges of rape and unlawful sexual intercourse. He and an accomplice allegedly raped a 17-year-old and a 15-year-old tourist on a Harbour Island beach sometime between June 27 and 28, 2018.

While on release, Stewart failed to check in at his local police station on four occasions between December 9, 2024, and March 18.

He pleaded guilty to the charges on Thursday and accepted the facts presented against him.

The following day, after Stewart was remanded overnight, he was ordered to pay a fine of $4,900 or risk four months in prison.

A portion of his fine must be paid before his release, with the rest to be settled at a later date.

Assistant Superintendent of Police K Bould prosecuted the case.
