Jason Arday, ex-Cambridge professor at centre of plagiarism row, found dead

Jason Arday, the former University of Cambridge professor at the centre of a plagiarism row, has been found dead.

Emergency services said a man was found "unresponsive" at an address in Battersea, south London, on Friday afternoon.

Arday resigned as a Cambridge professor of sociology of education last week after allegations of plagiarism and questions about some of his achievements. He had denied the claims.

Arday's family said in a statement that they were "in shock to have lost this amazing father, partner, brother, uncle and son".

They added: "The campaign of misinformation was too much for Jason, who was a gentle man and who always wanted to see the best in everyone."...
