Mr Merritt was a course coordinator at Learning Together, which held the prison rehabilitation conference attended by Usman Khan before his deadly rampage on Friday afternoon.

Khan, armed with two knives and wearing a fake suicide vest, killed a man and a woman and injured three other people before he was shot dead by police.

It has emerged the 28-year-old was a convicted terrorist who was wearing an electronic tag after being released half-way through a 16-year prison sentence for plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange.

Mr Merritt studied law at the University of Manchester before attending the University of Cambridge from 2016 to 2017, according to his Facebook page.

In a tribute, his father David Merritt posted on Twitter: "My son, Jack, who was killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily.

"R.I.P. Jack: you were a beautiful spirit who always took the side of the underdog."
