Photojournalist Danish Siddiqui’s Parents Move International Court

Danish Siddiqui was a Pulitzer Prize-winning chief photojournalist of Reuters who died while covering the Afghan-Taliban clashes on Friday.

He had tweeted earlier that he tagged along with the Afghan Special Forces in Kandahar city to cover the situation. That was his last tweet.

Danish covered a wide range of issues across the world, some of which are the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Rohingya refugees crisis, Nepal earthquakes, farmers' protest and Delhi riots.

Before switching to photojournalism, Danish was a television news correspondent for a channel. Later he joined international news agency Reuters and worked as a correspondent with the India Today Group from September 2008 to January 2010.

Throughout his career, he captured many moments which are called iconic as they showed the truth.
