== Early career ==
Jameel began working as a journalist in college for ''Aabshaar'' magazine. He went on to work for the [[Urdu language|Urdu]] paper ''Aftab'' before joining the ''[[The Telegraph (Calcutta)|Telegraph]]'' in 1983. In mid-1984, he also began working for the BBC and Reuters.<ref name="walla" />

== Abduction and attacks ==
On 2 June 1990, Jameel was seized from his home by the [[Indian Army]], taken to a base in the Kashmir conflict zone, and, based on what the officials later admitted to was incorrect information, questioned about his links to militants. After initially denying the detention, the army released him 30 hours later.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/04/world/indian-army-frees-reporter-from-kashmir.html |title=Indian Army Frees Reporter From Kashmir |date=4 June 1990 |work=The New York Times |agency=Reuters |url-status=live |archive-date=27 August 2012 |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/6ADfoAUD0?url=http://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/04/world/indian-army-frees-reporter-from-kashmir.html |access-date=26 August 2012 }}</ref> Three of the army officers involved were later disciplined.<ref name="cpj"/>

In two incidents in 1992, grenades were thrown at Jameel's home. In the same year, he was hospitalized after a beating by security forces while trying to cover a protest march.<ref name="cpj"/>

In September 1995, [[Asian News International]] cameraman Mushtaq Ali was killed when he opened a letter bomb addressed to Jameel, who was then working for the BBC. Jameel was injured in the attack. After the incident, he moved to London for a few months before returning to India.<ref name="cpj"/> Though no one was ever arrested for the attack, it later surfaced that the bomb had been sent to him by army personnel.<ref name="walla"/> Jameel expressed disappointment in the BBC's response to the attack, saying that though he was taken to London for receiving treatment to his injuries they failed to keep the promise to compensate him financially. He was also barred from further reporting on Kashmir before firing him a year later.<ref name="walla"/>

== Awards and recognition ==
In 2006, he won the first Best Journalist/Writer award instituted by the South Asian Free Media Association (SAFMA).<ref>[http://oldcontent.newswatch.in/news-analyses/people/3737.html?q=news-analyses/people/3737.html&q=news-analyses/people/3737.html Newswatch India » Yusuf Jameel bags SAFMA award]{{Dead link|date=March 2012}}</ref>

In February 2011, Jameel received Ahad Zargar Memorial award for his outstanding contribution as a journalist. The award given annually in recognition of excellent work done in the fields of literature, journalism, public and social services has been instituted by the Ahad Zargar Research Foundation after Kashmiri Sufi poet [[Abdul Ahad Zargar]]. He also got 2019-2020 Pen India's Gauri Lankesh award <ref>{{Cite web|title=Scoop News: The Leading News Portal and News Agency of Jammu Kashmir|url=http://www.scoopnews.in/det.aspx?10954|access-date=2020-09-09|website=www.scoopnews.in}}</ref>
