Albany police later confirmed to Fox News that Akkan is not a U.S. citizen.
According to the incident reports, Akkan coerced the girl into his backseat with a pipe, removed her clothes and raped her there despite her attempts to push him away.
He was being held in an Albany jail without bail. He is due back in court Thursday afternoon.
Court records show Akkan had been stopped in another jurisdiction for an alleged traffic violation 12 days before his arrest.
He has pleaded not guilty to a first-degree rape charge.
The news comes on the heels of a number of high-profile attacks on women and young girls by illegal immigrants around the country.

In a recent New York Post op-ed, former New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey wrote that the Biden administration's failure to secure the southern border has led to a "femicide" plague across the United States.
"Women are being victimized by migrants, bringing ‘femicide’ to your neighborhood," she warned.
Attacks on women are already a known problem across Latin America, she wrote, with evidence lining migration routes from South America to the U.S. border with Mexico.
