A group of Jewish students were allegedly subjected to antisemitic abuse and attacked by members of a leading university’s drinking club, it has been claimed.

The Jewish academics were reportedly pushed, shoved and threatened after being targeted at a student union building at Cambridge University.

According to the Telegraph, the incident took place last month and has resulted in two students being disciplined.

But the newspaper claimed the university had refused to make public its findings following an investigation, and had reportedly cleared the society members of antisemitism.
