Dummy variable for GJR Garch (1,1) and GARCH-M (1,1)

I am trying to construct a dummy variable in both a AR(1) GJR and AR (1) Garch-m to measure the impact of a short selling ban on the leverage effect and risk.
I.m not sure where to place the dummy variable to measure the impact correctly.

Would I place the dummy in the variance equation for the GJR to measure the leverage impact and for the Garch-m place the dummy in the mean equitation.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Yes. It sounds like you need the shift dummy both in the variance and the mean.

So for both Models, I put the dummy variable in the mean and the variance equation
