Jamal Khashoggi: Killers Did Not Act Alone, Says Turkish Foreign Minister

Unic Press UK: Turkish Foreign Minister, Mevlut Cavusoglu, who recently censured the United States President Donald Trump over his utterances on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, said that his country’s leadership does not believe that those who killed Khashoggi acted alone.

During an interview with the Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper, Cavusoglu said:

“He was killed within seven minutes, it was premeditated murder,” Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper reported on November 27.

Cavusoglu revealed that he had listened to the sound recordings that should prove the murder in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.

Turkish national authorities have repeatedly accused the Saudi Arabian government of killing Jamal Khashoggi, who had walked into the Saudi Arabian embassy in Istanbul on October 2, 2018 to carry out paperwork ahead of his marriage to a Turkish national, but did not exit the building thereafter.

After several weeks denying the allegations of murder, the Saudi government facing scathing condemnation by state actors and institutions suddenly confessed that Mr Jamal Khashoggi was indeed killed inside its consulate in Istanbul, saying that Khashoggi died during a fistfight.
