Summary
Further questions were asked about the truth of other claims made by the professor, including saying that he ran 600 miles in six days and that he had raised £5.5million for charity. The Independent has contacted a representative of Arday for comment. Simon Schuster has continued to stand by Arday so far.
Furthermore, Arday, 41, resigned on Thursday (6 August) as a professor of sociology at the university after being placed under investigation following a series of reports alleging that he plagiarised his PhD thesis and other research. Sociology students supervised by Arday allegedly raised concerns about his conduct, only to be told they were being racist by administrators, according to critics of the university's handling of the affair. The scandal has fuelled accusations that Cambridge prioritised diversity and inclusion over academic rigour and its global reputation.
