Independent U.N. report into killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi says there is 'credible evidence' to warrant further investigation into possible role of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
An independent U.N. report into the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi said Wednesday there is"credible evidence" to warrant further investigation into the possible role of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and suggested sanctions on his personal assets.
Khashoggi, a critic of the crown prince who wrote columns in The Washington Post, was killed, and believed to have been dismembered, inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul by Saudi agents. His remains have never been found. Before his death, he had been living in self-imposed exile following a crackdown on activists and anyone voicing dissent inside the kingdom.
The report also offers a chilling minute-by-minute account of the events surrounding the killing based on audio shared by Turkish authorities, and cites sounds of a buzzing saw that could have been used to dismember Khashoggi's body. She wrote that her focus was mainly on identifying those who may have failed in or abused their positions of authority.
