Detectives later lifted his "official
suspect" status and Mr Murat, who was
living in Praia da Luz after leaving
Hockering, Norfolk, accepted damages
from newspapers and a television
company.
He will take part in a discussion at
Cambridge University on Thursday evening
and propose the motion "This House
Believes Tabloids Do More Harm Than
Good" during the debate at the Cambridge
Union Society.
His lawyer, Louis Charalambous, said:
"Mr Murat accepted Cambridge Union
Society's invitation to propose the
motion as it represented the most
favourable forum within which he could
personally and once and for all, set the
record straight about his experience at
the hands of the British tabloids.
"He has chosen this as his sole and only
opportunity to share these experiences
and the plight of victims of the press
pack."
Four national newspaper groups
apologised for publishing false
allegations about Mr Murat at a court
hearing in July.
News International, Mirror Group
Newspapers, Express Newspapers and
Associated Newspapers acknowledged
making "false claims", in a statement
read out in the High Court.
In November, Mr Murat accepted libel
damages in settlement of an action
against British Sky Broadcasting
