… that Mr Arday’s thesis contained “more than 100 passages that are identical or nearly identical to a 2009 PhD thesis” by a Brunel University student - although it said he credited the student 17 times.

It sounds like its a far cry from intended plagiarism. I guess a case could be made that he used too much of the source material but citing the source shows that be wasn’t trying to hide where he got it.

Bizarre.

This harassment is not human
