<p>Chief Magistrate Emma Arbuthnot authorised the use of force to bring him before her by videolink from Belmarsh prison.</p>
<p>McCann, 34, was due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday but refused to come up from the cells.</p>
<p>Security was so tight six uniformed officers had been placed on guard outside the courtroom.</p>
<p><!--Ads3--></p>
<p>McCann, from Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire, has been charged with 12 offences, including five rapes.</p>
<p>He was arrested near Congleton, in Cheshire, in the early hours of Monday, just over two weeks after he is alleged to have abducted a woman in her 20s in Watford in the early hours of Sunday April 21 before raping her in a residential property.</p>
<p>He is charged with kidnap and rape over the alleged attack.</p>
<p>McCann is further charged with two kidnappings, four counts of rape, one count of false imprisonment, two counts of causing a female to engage in sexual activity and one count of assaulting a female by penetration in London between April 24 and April 27.</p>
<p>The charges relate to two women, who are in their 20s, who were separately snatched off the street in Chingford and Edgware, in London, before being raped in a car.</p>
<p><!--Ads5--></p>
<p>An investigation by Scotland Yard’s Homicide and Major Crime Command is continuing and the Metropolitan Police said a file remains with the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in relation to further alleged offences.</p>
