|}} Sabihuddin Ghausi ({{lang-ur|{{Nastaliq|صبیح الدین غوثی}}}}) was an acclaimed Pakistani journalist and an activist for the cause of the community of journalism in Pakistan.[2] According to one obituary, he was bold and he wrote what he thought was right.[1][2]

Early life

Ghausi was born in Ahmedabad, in the state of Gujarat, India. His father was a sessions judge at Junagadh High Court and also served as revenue commissioner in Manavadar. After the partition in 1947, the family migrated to Pakistan. Ghausi received his B.A degree from Islamia College, Karachi and M.A degree from the University of Karachi. He began his career as an officer at Habib Bank, but he resigned from the bank and joined journalism in 1970.[2]

Career

Ghausi started his journalistic career joining Daily Sun, his first newspaper job in 1970. He also worked for Pakistan Press International (PPI), Business Recorder, Morning News and Muslim newspapers. Later he joined the daily Dawn (newspaper) in 1988 and worked there for past two decades.[2]

He was respected for his credibility, courage and commitment by the Karachi's journalism community. He was elected four times as president of Karachi Press Club and two times as president of Karachi Branch of Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists.[3]

Ghausi was jailed during Zia-ul-Haq’s military rule and lost his job. He still remained active and also took part in protests against the former military ruler Pervez Musharraf’s crackdown on the media. He was also a good speaker, and he never hesitated to ask shocking questions.[1]

Journalist Amir Zia wrote:

{{blockquote|"He often painted a bleak and dismal picture of the state of affairs in Pakistan. His sense of loss of the disappearances of all the values dear to him – from social and individual liberties to freedom of expression, democracy and human rights – was great. Stories by Qurratulain Hyder, the poetry of Habib Jalib, tales of his favourite city Mumbai, the tragedy of Bangladesh, military rule in Pakistan and democratic system of government were some of Ghausi’s favourite and recurring topics."[1]}}

Death

He died in Karachi on 26 March 2009 at the age of 65.[4]
