A 23-year-old man facing rape, armed robbery, and attempted armed robbery charges did not appear in court yesterday due to hospitalisation, and his case was adjourned in the Magistrate’s Court in New Providence.

Calvin Nicholas Bain’s case was stood down and is set to resume on March 30. He is accused of multiple offences dating back to 2021.

Court records list his addresses as Shady Tree Street and Honeysuckle Lane.

In one matter, it is alleged that on June 16, 2021, in New Providence, Bain, acting with others and armed with a handgun, robbed Lisa Wilson-Adderley of a blue Samsung A21S valued at $250.

He is also accused of sexually assaulting the 47-year-old woman on the same date without her consent.

In separate proceedings, Bain is accused of attempting armed robbery on March 8, 2026, when he allegedly tried to rob Maria Peneda-Barboza of a handbag containing groceries and $80 cash while armed with a handgun.

Another charge alleges that on March 3, 2026, Bain, while armed with a handgun, robbed Andreas List of a burgundy 2016 Nissan Cube, licence plate DD2398, valued at $7,000, along with a brown leather wallet containing $50.

The matter is expected to resume on March 30.
