In addition to one count of kidnapping, the man has been charged with failing to provide the necessities of life for a child under 16.
His identity cannot be disclosed, as a court order prevents the publication of any information that could identify the two alleged victims.
The accused will remain in custody until his next court hearing on June 6.
