istanbul but first susan costello joins us live from the turkish capital ankara so took his authority is a given more details about the man that they say led this operation what exactly have they said. exactly peter and this is the word that he led operation which means he coordinated every step of this operation which was conducted against journalists fellow. actually according to the investigation reports the turkish police and the prosecutors have chased his phone calls and what's up what's up because this man in the red box that you have shown is known to be is actually the person who rented the private jet which brought fifteen members of the squad team stumble on the day off tomorrow disappearance also we have learned from the turkish authorities that he made nine hundred phone calls to saudi

arabia on this day since the time he arrived in istanbul until the time they left back to riyadh in the. they left stumble in the late afternoon and four of these nine hundred phone calls were actually done to the secretary of the crown prince mohammed bin sound money the police and the technical teams of the security is also investigating the whatsapp calls but of course they haven't reached to any content as these are into and encrypted also because the phone line was a roaming saudia line but they have assured that four of these nineteen calls to saudi arabia where gone to crown prince mohamed sahnoun special secretary also a new development in the case is that there is another suspect in the file in the investigation file the sources told us that this man the other suspect has been in charge of informing cell do authorities about every move. since the time he arrived

from united states. until the time he stepped in the consulate building and disappeared or of these are obviously significant developments u.s. secretary of state might compare you know has been in ankara today one of the turkish authorities saying about the ongoing investigation. well turkish foreign minister had to have a statement to the cameras actually he had a very short press briefing he mentioned that to counter parts talked about the developments in the case but of course circuit has concerns concerns over the case even though united states is ready to help because the foreign minister mentioned one thing very important he mentioned that the cell the consul general who's been named to be the prime suspect of this investigation file has acted actually reckless and foreign minister said that. the saudi consul to the foreign press

inside the consulate open the doors of the clausewitz and the room solving that siege is not here so actually turkish authorities find this attitude by the saudi officers. as serious about this case and mentioned that his back to saudi arabia and it depends on saudi authorities to decide whether he's to come back to turkey or not but of course i have to rewind that these people have diplomatic immunity and since forty eight hours is already gone away after the incident happened there is nothing much to do to arrest those people or to lift immunities it's all about the bloke's off the diplomacy and the vienna cannot vienna convention but of course tarmoh so things will say peter all right many thanks indeed. let's go live now to istanbul charles strengths that is outside the saudi arabian consulate in that city charles what's the latest on the investigation into the disappearance of jamal khashoggi.

we understand according to a statement from the turkish foreign minister it's expected that the joint investigative team will be given to. the generals oh. late to today we spoke to the cheap prosecutor's office this morning to try and get details as to exactly what the problem was last night we were told that members of the she basically team came down to the consul general's home not the full team and there were no saudis involved in the vehicles that the bulldozed team that sidled the team to the consul general so they tried to make telephone calls and contact people inside the house but the phone was never picked up we understand today from the foreign minister. the reason was is because they were family members of the consul general inside inside the house and that's why the investigation of the home

was delayed but as i say that there's a lot of debate here as to the efficiency all of this investigation we've heard since it was set up. ideas or a lot of emphasis on the confidence that that is needed to be able to bring this all together to grab the saxes for both sides to be able to work together and as last night's incident had shows there's obviously a lot more work to be done it's not just the consul general home that needs to be looked at either we understand that this could be a lot of focus on these vehicles that were used by the embassy as well the plates registered to the embassy but as i say it's expected that that joint investigative team will go inside the consul general home in the coming hours many thanks to let's take you live now to washington d.c. al-jazeera is complete how could his standing by for us there so we know that

secretary of state mike compare was in ankara after being in saudi arabia yesterday he met with the president won and the foreign minister and then left what more do we know kimberly. yeah we're trying to nail that down with the state department now we still don't have the secretary schedule but you're right there is the readout now of those meetings where once again the united states not going any further than what we've seen in recent days and that is expressing concern and expressing a willingness adrian to assist turkey with its investigation once again the state department careful to stress that my pump a zero has said through out his meetings that happened in riyadh that he is calling for a thorough and complete and transparent investigation but it was also notable where he talked to the press he was saying that there were many places that saudi arabia and the united states work together on that there are overlapping issues and this

is something that has really sparked the interest of course of members of congress in recent days because well we know full well that the united states supplies military assistance to saudi arabia in the form of arms sales in the port of aerial support in the conflict in yemen it's a role that increasingly members of congress are very uncomfortable with so we have this interesting dynamic going on in washington right now adrian and that is with the one hand we're seeing a white house that seems to be willing to kind of. work in sort of some sort of diplomatic cleanup operation that seems to be what the american public is taking away from the meetings that have occurred in saudi arabia and in turn the sort of. lower key approach if you will in turkey and this is been the focus of a washington post editorial even the fact that many people in the united states see this is not acceptable and are now encouraging congress members to step up where they see the white house not in the form of either blocking arms sales to saudi

arabia for the future and also for the u.s. business community to continue to shun saudi arabia as we've seen many do already with the. back to the davos in the desert conference that is upcoming to many many thanks i was there as kimberly helped at the live in washington d.c. will the head of the international monetary fund is the latest big name to withdraw from the saudi conference knobbed dubbed divorce in the desert christine lagarde is postponing her trip to the middle east which was due to include the meeting of major investors in riyadh later this month a god has said that she's horrified. she's disappearance well on his visits to riyadh mike pompei o the u.s. secretary of state said that saudi leaders told him a thorough transparent untimely investigation would be carried out in the disappearance some senators though in the u.s. are skeptical about whether that will be allowed to happen my camera reports from washington. mike pompei you held meetings throughout the day speaking to the king

the crown prince as well as the foreign minister he came away with saudi denials and the pledge that a credible investigation is already underway they made a commitment to to hold anyone connected to any wrongdoing that may be found accountable for that whether they are a senior officer official they promised accountability for each of those persons whom they determine as a result of their investigation as did deserves accountability including members who made no exceptions to who they would hold accountable they were they were just for they were very clear they are they understand the importance of this issue they're determined to get to the bottom of it and that they will conduct the report more war get a chance to see it be they each promised that they would achieve that force president tramples i spoke to the crown prince on the phone who he says totally denied any knowledge of what took place in an extraordinary statement to associated press president trump says that allegations of saudi complicity ah and i quote

another case of guilty until proven innocent this in reference to his nomination as supreme court judge read capital who was accused of sexual assault but together with the statements by mike pong peo it would also appear to be part of a concerted strategy by the trumpet ministration to insist that there is no complicity among saudi leaders but the shop your dogs with views expressed by congressional leaders senator rand paul tweeted saudi arabia is not our friend they fund radicalism around the world we don't need to be arming them they are the worst actors out there promoting terrorism and strong criticism from another republican senator of the crown prince referring to him by his initials n b s this guy has got to go sorry because listening there are a lot of good people you can choose for him b.s. his.
