The 22-year-old, who wore a blue hooded top, spoke only to confirm his name, address and date of birth at the Redbridge Magistrates’ Court.
He was taken into custody until September 21 when he will appear at the Snaresbrook Crown Court, the Press Association reported. Earlier, the Metropolitan Police said Tweed had been charged with one count of rape in connection with an incident on Friday.
The court heard how the suspected offence took place at Tweed’s home in Woodford Green, east London.
The police arrested Tweed and another man in his twenties on Friday after a teenage woman reported she had been sexually assaulted. The second man has been released on bail.
Officers investigating the alleged rape said in a statement they had arrested a third person, aged 25, on Friday night. He is being held at an east London police station.
