Friends have paid tribute to British sociologist and professor Jason Arday following his death, days after he stepped down from Cambridge amid intense scrutiny over plagiarism allegations.
UK media reported the 41-year-old was found “unresponsive” inside a home in south London on Friday.
In a statement issued through his publisher, Arday's family said that a "campaign of misinformation" had been "too much for Jason... who always wanted to see the best in everyone.”
They added that for three years, Arday had been “subjected to a campaign of sustained abuse... by those who would leave no stone unturned in their quest to undermine him."
