ABOUT SAMAAN LATEEF
I am an award winning journalist, with significant experience in covering South Asia for international newspapers. I am currently working for the Daily Telegraph in the United Kingdom covering South Asia, producing a daily memo of breaking stories and leading exclusive investigations. While working with the Daily Telegraph UK, I have been covering South Asia with a strong contact base in India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Proficiency in English, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic and Persian helps me to communicate effectively with people across south Asia. My freelance work has also appeared in the Haaretz, Independent, Deutsche Well, Nikkei Asia Review, and a breadth of other international newspapers. I have broken a series of exclusives for both the Telegraph\'s Foreign and Global Health Security desks, using my vast network of contacts to deliver a succession of stories on Chinese aggression along the Line of Actual Control, the Covid-19 pandemic in India, the political and financial crisis in Pakistan, and floods in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
