According to Arab media reports, available evidence has shown that these universities have paid at least £440,000 to an intelligence or security company since 2022, the purpose of which was to secretly monitor protest activities on campus, and especially pro-Palestinian individuals.
According to the documents, this monitoring included not only students but also academics. They include a Palestinian scholar who was invited to lecture at the University of Manchester, but his activities were also monitored.
