Home and Away has introduced a new nemesis for Cash Newman as part of the ongoing Harper and Dana Matheson storyline.

Jonny Pasvolsky has been cast in the role of Detective Madden, who made his first appearance in Monday's Australian episode (August 21).

A new storyline currently on air in Australia has seen Cash reconnect with his old friend Harper, who wants help to clear the name of her sister Dana.

Dana is on the run after her boyfriend Ollie seemingly framed her for drugs charges to save himself. When Harper asked Cash to take a look at the case, she failed to mention that she was secretly keeping Dana hidden at Irene Roberts' house.

In Monday's episode on Channel 7, Detective Madden was introduced as the senior police figure who'd been overseeing Dana's case.

Madden was clearly annoyed to find that Cash was asking awkward questions about the investigation, undermining his authority.

However, he also appeared to have a more sinister reason for not wanting Cash to dig any further, making a mysterious phone call and saying: "I need all the information you can get on Senior Constable Cash Newman."

Later, Cash was called back to the police station for another conversation with Madden, who'd discovered his personal friendship with Harper.

Madden was triumphant as Cash had failed to mention this when defending Dana.

The detective warned: "It's not okay to do favours for mates, so why don't you just stop this right now? Let me put Matheson away before you get yourself in some real trouble."

Shortly afterwards, Cash's day got worse as he sprung Harper hiding Dana at Irene's house, potentially implicating him in their antics.

Home and Away fans in the UK will see these scenes on Channel 5 in October.
