Mr. Malick Jones, ex-principal producer GRTS, is said to have been arrested again, but this time for common assault, said a source.

Jones was reportedly arrested last Friday and has since been detained at Kairaba Police Station, on suspicion of having assaulted one Sainabou Cham, a lady he is said to have been living with in the same compound in kaanifing south.

He has since been bailed and reporting to the kairaba police station. Jones will soon appear before a magistrate court to answer to the new charges. This confirmed by the police PRO inspector Sulayman Secka.

It would be recalled that Jones was arrested in September of 2007together with Mam Sait Ceesay former press officer at the Office of the President State House, and charged of giving false information to a foreign journalist. The state has since come up with two counts of publishing false publication against mam Sait Ceesay only.
