SW Police have arrested veteran broadcaster Alan Jones following an investigation into alleged indecent assault and sexual touching offences spanning two decades.

In a statement NSW Police said Child Abuse Squad detectives executed a warrant at the 83-year-old's luxury Sydney apartment at Circular Quay about 7:45am.

The State Crime Command's Child Abuse Squad established Strike Force Bonnefin in March to investigate a number of alleged indecent assaults and sexual touching incidents between 2001 and 2019.

What I'd just say to you @dbseymour is, was this guy a member of the ACT party or am I thinking of someone else?

A search warrant is continuing.

Jones had a broadcasting career spanning more than 35 years, with the shock jock dominating Sydney's airwaves for decades.

He started his media career as morning news presenter for 2UE in 1985.

Jones is best-known for his programme on Sky News and breakfast radio show on Sydney radio station 2GB, which he joined after leaving 2UE in 2002.

He was the morning broadcaster for the station for 18 years until May 2020.

Jones's contract with Sky News Australia was not renewed in November 2021.

The shock jock later joined streaming news channel ADH TV, which features a slew of conservative political commentators.

His last show on the streaming station aired in November 2023.

Before his broadcasting career, Jones was speechwriter and senior adviser to then prime minister Malcolm Fraser for three years.

He became Australian rugby union coach in 1984 and coached Australia to victory in 102 matches over four years, including winning the 1986 Bledisloe Cup.
