so. in a fist fight. across the country.

it's good to have you with us. of the killing of. so. that he died and it's often a fistfight with a name for more than two weeks the saudis have denied he was dead this is a moment that. the saudi consulate in istanbul never to be seen again. she's disappearance sparked an international outcry over and over saudi arabia said he'd left the building alive. weeks late they conceded that falls the critical journalist died at their hands. with prosecutors first investigation into the disappearance of the saudi citizen jamal khashoggi has found

a discussion between him and the people he met while he was at the saudi consulate in istanbul led to an argument and scrabble with her charges which cost his death. in. the statement is a break from two weeks of silence and denial from riyadh even this incriminating evidence mounted. days after the shock he and at the consulate turkish officials leaked information that the journalist was killed inside the building. next they released these images purportedly showing a hit squad arriving in istanbul airport shortly before construction and at the consulate turkish officials also claim the audio recordings proving that construct she was tortured and his body in dismembered. even off a saudi arabia's latest concessions the journalist body still hasn't been found and it is unclear who ordered kushal she's killing. we want justice for gemma

we want. mortars will be punished all over we want punishment not only for at the eighteen men but also for the author of that gave the orders saudi arabia now claims it has responded to the killing by second senior officials including general ahmed assyria a close confidant of mohammad. raising yet more questions about the role of saudi arabia's de facto ruler in the death of the dissident journalist. a few more and there's a we're joined by another. debate another plank so much for coming in first of all that how credible is it that these officials acted without any instruction. i don't think it's very credible because as we heard in the report that i see is a very close friend or a close advisor of hamad bin son and the crown prince who is actually did decide to

king or the defacto ruler of saudi arabia and the other official qahtani he's also very close advisor to the royal family so for me it seems like the royal family the saudi. government had been synonymous his father king some men were searching for maybe you would say scapegoat to find a solution that they have been denying fourteen days long that. g. has been killed or is even dead and now they have the problem to explain how he died and the thing that he died in hell yeah in the fight in a fistfight is not really credible as well is that how it's being viewed in the wider world as well i've been looking at social media and what friends and family and people saying about this last statement from the saudi officials that he jamal khashoggi died in a fistfight and everybody is joking about it actually people are being cynical

about it they say how can somebody die in a fistfight in in an embassy or consulate in a suit arabia with fifteen other people i mean what do these fifteen other people do in the in the embassy and what is their role and what happened in the first place with his body why don't we know that so there is a lot of criticism and it seems that people are saying so to rebias trying to explain what's happened but they just making everything worse you know a whole new job market. be remembered. in the region and the wider world well we have to know that he wasn't really a dissident or wasn't always a dissident he was close to the royal family. in the past and he was he knew. or quite a lot of other family in the was a bit more well known journalist in saudi arabia but after mohamed bin someone came to power after his father king someone came to power. i think he had some some kind

of conflict with the royal family when he saw that so to arabia is moving in a direction that is not going to be good in his in in his. opinion it was a crackdown a massive crackdown on the opposition on freedom of speech and on journalists so i think he will be remembered now after we know what's happened to him as an icon of freedom of speech in saudi arabia in their board as general general another lazzaro's from the devil of a thanks very much for that not as all the other stories making news around the world hundreds of migrants are faced off against riot police on a bridge crossing the mexican bottom of the border out some people jumped into the water along the border to escape they are part of a group of thousands who set off from honduras last weekend and the heading towards the united states protesters calling for a referendum on the final brakes

rocked by several blasts on saturday but had vowed to disrupt bottom entry elections almost nine million people vote in the country despite the fate of attacks people have been lining up to cost their ballots in defiance and facing the security related chaos violence ahead of the ball has already cost at least ten candidates their lives. these people are risking their lives to vote the threat of violence from the taliban and so-called islamic state hangs over every polling station almost nine million people are registered in the poll for the lower house of parliament ordinary afghans have expressed cautious hope. but i have got to right to vote and today i came out here and voted for my favorite candidate and did my part for the future of afghanistan. on the phone to have. a chance to have something more income flanks and now i've come here to invite for paris and he should want to bring security to the country i asked people to come

and fight for prosperity in afghanistan not. it's a major step that these elections are happening at all they were originally scheduled to be held three years ago but ongoing instability has forced many delays a string of ten candidates have been assassinated then just this past week an attack in kandahar province killed the chief of police and wounded the provincial governor leading to further delays in the province. a senior american general avoided injury in the attack he encouraged afghans not to be discouraged. present to the people of afghanistan as very consistent you have every right to be proud of your security forces and the preparations for this election despite this unfortunate event tragic event that. and our. if turnout is strong it shows that the country indeed has functioning institutions bolstering the

government's legitimacy in the eyes of the people but the actual electoral results won't be known for several weeks. and joining us to do it all of us the president knows he'll be from do the best of us up thanks so much for coming in but the many of the just ticket problems and all the security incidents of use in all that aside to afghans really have faith that these elections will deliver on their hopes and dreams well be nobody expected these elections to be free from fraud or violence and in fact the violence that we saw today a lot of people expect of this. but what the afghans did today was to show again that they want democracy they are resilient and they want representatives who are actually representing them and not only their own interests but when it comes to the options the field of candidates if you like from which they need to pick and they need to choose what options do they really have well of course we have the old parliamentarians that are running for reelection and there are also a number of candidates that are related to wall arts and power brokers and they're

actually pictures on social media that are warning people to not give their votes to these candidates but we also have i mean and that is maybe there's one that's the positive thing about having the election so late is that we had a lot of time for the younger generation to develop and now we have over sixty percent of candidates that are below the age of forty according to the independent election commission we also have a high number of female candidates did a very certainly encouraging numbers but when it comes to the overall situation in afghanistan can be very be easy in that country without a political settlement with the certainly not because we know that the taliban are controlling a very large portion of the country fishley they are in control of thirty percent of the country other numbers suggest fifty percent so a high. a large number it is certainly a large number so we need to see a political solution with the taliban and they need to bring the taliban to the

discussion table but how far is that going that effort to bring them to the table how successful is that would mean we know that the united states representatives met them in qatar last week but beyond that what text well we can certainly say that the afghan government has not come so far there have been talks with other parties with the u.s. with russia or china but the afghan government itself that's not been there is successful in bringing the taliban to the table what is the role of the other western governments of the number of other western governments involved besides the united states you also have germany how do of guns view their involvement positively because they think they believe in the western allies and they believe that they are capable of helping them scores there are some countries like germany afghans have more trust in because of the very strong connection to germany so yeah it remains to be seen what will happen one can only wait and see was not housebroken as amy from did a bit of contest and so much for coming in. the baby colombo spacecraft has lifted
