Hundreds gather for fond farewell to Kim Sengupta
The Independent
|February 07, 2025
The Independent’s world affairs editor died last year aged 68
Hundreds of people gathered yesterday to pay their respects to Kim Sengupta, The Independent’s world affairs editor who died last year.
Family, friends and journalists filed into St Bride’s Church on Fleet Street to say a fond farewell and hear the stories of his life as recalled by those closest to him. Kim, 68, died suddenly at home and tributes poured in from journalists, military generals and MPs, including foreign secretary David Lammy.
Geordie Greig, The Independent’s editor-in-chief, had known Kim for more than 40 years and described his fearlessness in reporting in conflict zones around the world, including Syria, Libya, Syria, Turkey, Gaza, Ukraine, Haiti and Sri Lanka.
