al jazeera. and for you. evidence found a source in the turkish attorney general's office tells al-jazeera investigators have found proof saudi journalist was killed inside the saudi consulate. this is al jazeera live from two weeks after the journalist disappeared the u.s. secretary of state has just landed in riyadh as the u.s. reports say saudi arabia plans to issue a statement saying the saudi journalist died during an interrogation gone wrong.
10:01 am
family of a journalist assassinated while investigating corruption in malta demands an inquiry into whether the government was involved. and we report from the democratic republic of congo where at least two million children are at risk of dying because they're not getting enough food. source from the turkish attorney general's office tells al-jazeera it's found evidence that missing saudi journalist. was murdered inside the saudi consulate in istanbul turkish investigators finally got to spend several hours in the building thirteen days after the job g.'s disappearance al-jazeera has learned that the outcome of the investigation will be announced in two to three days u.s. media reports meanwhile say saudi arabia is considering the. either to release
10:02 am
a statement saying he was killed as a result of an interrogation which went wrong riyadh reportedly plans to say the operation was carried out without official clearance the saudi media says the kingdom will interview those who who were named in turkish reports as suspects in the case all of this comes as the u.s. secretary of state lands in riyadh to discuss the charges disappearance with the saudi king in a moment we'll go live to charles stratford in istanbul first reports on events there in recent hours. it took turkish investigators thirteen days to finally be given permission by saudi authorities to enter their consulate in istanbul but just a few hours for them to uncover more evidence they say proves that journalist jamal khashoggi was killed after entering it. the turkish attorney general's office exclusively telling al-jazeera that its team of investigators were able to not only
10:03 am
recover evidence from the crime scene but also that there had been a clear attempt to tamper with it. earlier on monday a team of cleaners arrived at the diplomatic mission a bizarre occurrence considering the circumstances they were then followed by saudi investigators who were part of what's been billed as a joint task force with questions being raised as to how the main suspects in a crime can have a lead role in the investigation itself. there are still so many questions that need on cers why did saudi arabia essendon autopsy experts if as some of its media outlets have been claiming the plan was only to question. how did the saudi government's nuts know of the operation when it's apparently involved two of qualm prince mohammed bin son man's personal bodyguards and where is jamal which will g.'s body full investigation would look at all of the cars that left the consulate from the time that shogi entered up until even not and presumably
10:04 am
it's the personnel on the consulate and you want to look at their homes and their cars often one can find d.n.a. evidence of incredibly minute amounts but telling in vehicles well after an event occurred so i would look at that i would look actually at presumably the saudis have cleaned everything weird. chlorine or who knows what but i would i would look at the the drainpipes and i look at all of the belongings of the members of the staff who have come in and come out. the case has forced multinational corporations like ford virgin and j.p. morgan to withdraw from an upcoming investment conference in saudi arabia the kingdom stock exchange suffered big losses on sunday true all of this coupled with the fact that the interests of regional and super powers are stake could mean that we may never know all the answers. it's why people will be monitoring closely to
10:05 am
see what evidence turkish authorities will reveal to the public once they complete their investigations tuesday marks through weeks since it is believed to have been murdered those who killed him appear to have wanted to silence him instead however their crime has triggered criticism and outrage from around the world much of it's directed towards the saudi government's. istanbul. has taken out some latest pictures that you've just come in from saudi arabia you can see there the u.s. secretary of state mark pompei or as he sits down with the saudi foreign minister. he's on a mission having been sent by the u.s. president to ultimately meet with king solomon the saudi monarch can try and sort out something one assumes about what this the saudi position will will come to.
10:06 am
about the disappearance of. the saudi journalist. thank you back to istanbul that's where the investigation is going on charles stratford is live from that and so charles when two things stand now what's the latest lines coming out of the investigation. will certainly understand the investigation in the culture the last least nine hours last night the witnesses saying that. they saw what seemed to be ultraviolet light speaking used in this investigation in some of the rooms in the front of the building there was also pitches that appeared. on the which is using agency all of least two trucks two trucks being driven away carrying what was reported to be rubble even soil covered in blue tarp pulled and we understand
10:07 am
that being taken away for analysis there were also dogs used in this investigation . in terms of numbers we understand there are at least nine is saudi members of the team a similar amount the turkish count as the church for the last visuals of the last to leave the consulate in the early hours of this morning we also understand that there was a door reportedly one of the garden doors was also taken away for analysis as you reported there it took almost two weeks since mr bush shows he simply disappeared inside that embassy full this investigation to start and yes certainly sources telling us we understand the results of this investigation are expected in two to three days' time certainly the amount of pressure put on saudi arabia internationally and indeed the turks one would suggest that would suggest we could expect quite. quick resumption of quick these results to be released quite quickly
10:08 am
but on a stake in chance to what extent might those final results of the investigation. be impacted by the sort of political calculations going on between world powers. will certainly turkey it's been interesting to watch how the have responded to these allegations from the very early stages of this crisis to. drip feeding the pro-government media with information we understand so these analysts are saying that he is trying to avoid a head on collision with saudi arabia in this crisis there's a lot at stake when you look at for example. the key benefits hugely from the boston mounts of money from the gulf states saudi arabia is the largest investor in this country to call me is suffering hugely at the moment these investments to saudi investments in this country obviously create
10:09 am
a lot of jobs for it. but of course it has hugely. made keys standing in this region and seemingly great to be has benefited one would think for what by waiting for this investigation to go through with the agreement of the saudis if you want to broaden it out and look for example at the states and the possible the deals being done in washington we know that president trump has been very reluctant in any way to suggest that these arms deals so hundred ten billion dollars deal will be withdrawal and the fact of the matter is is that not a single major deal has gone through with saudi arabia bage on deal is going through with saudi arabia since trump since trump came to the white house i think it's also going to be interesting despite the fact that they are there's
10:10 am
a lot of pressure on us leon trump from both republican and democratic senate says one signals as. pushing for a reaction if indeed this this this man was killed i think it's going to be interesting to look at what's happening in saudi arabia the fact that pay is going to be the king whether in fact this is an indication of his son the crown prince mohammed bin solomon actually being sidelined is it could be interesting to see what the saudis do and how in fact if this man was murdered possibly have it been so mom is punished. right charles stratford bad bringing us up to date on the investigation well jeez family has issued a statement they say as we await definitive answers and facts from multiple ongoing investigations we believe it is imperative to launch an independent in partial and internationally recognized investigation in order to provide us and the man who loved him with much needed clarity and resolution. u.s.
10:11 am
president donald trump has suggested that jamal khashoggi was murdered by row killers following a phone conversation with king solomon but many politicians and experienced u.s. officials reject that explanation mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . president trump arrived in florida to view hurrican damage and at the same time reports began to pull to route to power to solve the admission but the journalist was killed by mistake in an unsanctioned abduction attempt has the president tech knowledge hearing about the reports we were getting very close with saudi arabia which he and they were using to figure out what happened and they want to know what happened also so a lot of people are working on it with a lot of people and will be bound very much by that will say i heard everything but nobody knows who the individual reports of or just the rules of the room are
10:12 am
reporting from you have early in the day president trump floated the theory of what may have happened at the saudi consulate which sounded to me like maybe if but if it were killers. we're going to try getting to the bottom of a very this narrative also pushed by some saudi media was greeted with anger by members of congress the democratic senator from maryland sent out this tweet president trump suggestion that elaborately planned to murder in the saudi's own consulate was orchestrated by road killers defies reality says chris van hollen orders must have come from the top the u.s. must not be complicit in an effort to cover up this heinous crime skepticism also expressed by a former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. samantha power she says the notion that mohammed bin solomon one of the most controlling leaders in the middle east didn't know his government was sending fifteen goons to turkey to abduct
10:13 am
a saudi critic is absurd. and there's increasing criticism of the saudi crown prince by senior members of congress democrat senator chris murphy who serves on the foreign relations committee had this to say in a washington post opinion piece as the new crown prince sing gauges in increasingly reckless behavior more and more of us are wondering whether our allies actions are in our own best interests the lists are for erratic actions from mohamed bin solomon is long the jailing of royal family members the detention of the lebanese prime minister a nonsensical feud with cutter the growing internal repression of political speech and the disastrous war in yemen and a tangible response to the growing climate of criticism the elaborate national day celebrations at the saudi embassy this week have been canceled mike hanna al-jazeera washington well still ahead an hour disappear and flooding in southern
