Jafry, 38, said he had resigned from his position with Hud after the Guardian asked him to explain multiple allegations of fraud as well as exaggerations in his biography. Hud declined to discuss Jafry. Hud declined repeated requests to clarify what Jafry worked on. Prof Jack Hamlin, chairman of National’s department of professional studies, said: “We do not offer a ‘law degree’.” He declined to discuss Jafry’s case. Raffi Williams, a Hud spokesman, said in an email that Jafry was hired through Accel Corporation, a contractor.
