The NSW Local Court in Sydney is hearing the trial of former 2GB broadcaster Alan Jones, who is charged with 19 counts of indecent assault and two counts of sexual touching without consent.

The alleged offences involve five male complainants and are said to have occurred between 2003 and 2020. Jones, now 85, has entered a not‑guilty plea and maintains that the alleged physical acts did not happen.

Kate McClymont, the chief investigative reporter for The Sydney Morning Herald, will return to the witness box tomorrow after a brief witness testimony before the morning‑tea break. Her evidence is expected to resume at about 11.30 am, with the hearing continuing from 10 am.

Support services are available for anyone affected by sexual assault, including the National Sexual Assault, Domestic Family Violence Counselling Service at 1800RESPECT (1800 737 732) and the Men’s Referral Service at 1300 766 491.
