Best Investigation

Sponsored by Savanta, this one is for the best print, online or broadcast investigation produced by a freelance journalist.

Our judges said this “exceptional” investigation highlighted a major injustice that was deeply reported through “incredible stories told with care and attention to detail”.

The winner is Sahar Zand (@SaharZand) for Dirty Work - an investigative podcast series for Sky News, about the misuse of Interpol Red notices by authoritarian regimes and those in power.
