The university said the two-part probe will examine support and decision-making before his death, with findings due within three months.

  • On Friday, Cambridge University launched an investigation into associate professor James Orr following allegations he breached political donation rules.
  • Orr stepped down as Reform UK's head of policy after a Channel 4 undercover probe alleged he arranged for polling to be paid for by an overseas firm.
  • Concurrently, the University of Cambridge launched an independent review into its "decision-making and actions" in the period leading up to former professor Jason Arday's death.
  • Led by Nazir Afzal, chancellor of the University of Manchester, the review will examine support available to Arday, with findings expected within three months.
  • Vice-Chancellor Professor Deborah Prentice said the period since Arday's death has been one of "profound sadness and reflection," as the university navigates these simultaneous investigations.
