Flynn Remedios, journalist, writer, editor, Techno-legal, Brand & Image Management consultant is one of India's most prolific writers. With about 15,000 published articles in about 15 years, he has a record of sorts. He is also a visiting lecturer at some prestigious institutions in India. He has written on subjects like Technology (The Economic Times), Fashion and Lifestyle, Music, Movies, (Sunday Review) Markets and Finance (The Asian Age), Crime (The Free Press Journal), Politics (The Sunday Observer) and Environment (The Sunday Times of India).
He is known as the original Sting Ops Expert and Investigative Journalist. In the year 1996, his article on Where to buy an AK-47 in Mumbai published as a cover story in Island Magazine from the Magna Group created a furor among police and political circles. This was before the advent of investigative television journalism in India. His investigative stories on Rave Parties (exposing a section of the film industry), child trafficking, Casting Couch and others got him as many bouquets as it did brickbats.
His expose on corruption in the topmost elcheons of the Shiv Sena (a local fundamentalist political party in Mumbai got him nearly killed.
He has worked in varying capacities with various newspapers and magazines like the Times of India, The Economic Times, The Indian Express, The Sunday Observer, The Asian Age, The Free Press Journal, The Magna Group (Island magazine, Showtime, Savvy), The Blitz, The Daily, The Afternoon Dispatch & Courier, Current, etc., besides several other trade and niche publications. Currently he is the Editor of a yet-to-be-launched fashion and lifestyle magazine.
He also contributes to dozens of portals, websites and specialised databases on selected topics.
He is also a cyber crime and techno-legal consultant and has assisted the Mumbai police (Crime Branch), the CBI and even the armed forces in tracking down hackers/crackers and other cyber criminals. He is also a cyber crime consultant to several financial institutions and banks in India and abroad.
Unfortunately, two nasty incidents in his life put the brakes on his career graph. He is now a freelance writer, instructor, film journalist, stock markets consultant, activist (he runs two NGOs) and is currently authoring two books - one on cyber crime and another on Para-normal pheonomena.
Besides print journalism, he has worked with other organisations in Mumbai like Karrox Technologies Ltd (Head - Internet Security Division), Gurukulonline (Head - Mobile Internet Division) and IndiaOnline Network Ltd (Vice President - Technology and Projects)
