flag Alan Jones, 84, faces 25 counts of indecent assault and two of sexual touching related to nine alleged victims, with a hearing set for August 2026 in Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court. flag The case, stemming from a 2023 investigation by journalist Kate McClymont, includes 139 prosecution witnesses. flag Jones denies all charges, claiming he was not adequately informed about the investigation, citing withheld police and journalistic materials. flag His defense argues this undermines a fair trial and has requested a jury trial in a higher court, which was denied. flag Prosecutors dropped two allegations and removed claims of power imbalance, narrowing the case to incidents between 2003 and 2020 in private and public settings. flag The hearing, expected to last until December, will return for management on November 20.
