Journalist Jamal Khashoggi was “strangled” as soon as he entered the Saudi consulate in Istanbul and his body was then “cut into pieces” under a “premeditated plan,” Turkey’s chief prosecutor said in a statement on Wednesday.
The office of Irfan Fidan added that talks with Saudi Arabia’s chief prosecutor, who had visited Istanbul, had produced “no concrete results” on the killing of Khashoggi on October 2.
Khashoggi, a journalist for The Washington Post, was a known critic of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is a son of King Salman. Turkish officials have alleged that they have video and audio evidence showing Khashoggi was dismembered.
The Turkish prosecutor expressed disappointment in the level of cooperation provided by visiting Saudi Attorney General, Saud al-Mojeb. The statement said that Saudi Arabia did not provide the location of Khashoggi’s body, evidence that his killing was premeditated, or the name of the local collaborator.
Al-Mojeb said there was no local collaborator, and investigations couldn’t show if the murder was premeditated. He also said that further investigations were needed to find the location of the body.
Turkey has been invited to visit Saudi Arabia to conduct joint questioning of 18 suspects currently in detention there, the statement said.
