Crime reporting has long been a central part of news coverage in free press societies, because crime stories are usually newsworthy. To dig for a story, to follow leads, to interview people to extract information and to write crisp, clear, interesting stories under pressure of a deadline is included in crime investigation.
In small newspapers, radio and television stations, general reporters cover crime stories, while in bigger organisations there may be a specialist crime reporter or team of reporters who cover nothing else but crime.
Crime reporter has one of the difficult task of journalism because the crime investigators and crime reports receive threats to their lives and family for unveiling crimes by the criminals whom they investigate and report about. Crime investigation needs a lot of courage and responsibility. Some of the top crime reporters in Pakistan are:
