last time. this recently released c.c.t.v. footage shows jamal khashoggi and his fiance at the residence on the morning of october second and then walking to the saudi consulate in istanbul. from which he never emerged. in the week since the journalist death turkish media have leaked new details almost daily of how authorities say he was killed and how the suspects tried to cover it up. newly revealed footage obtained by c.n.n. shows a suspect apparently dressed in clothes leaving the consulate to tourist amble. a turkish official told c.n.n. the body double was likely meant to convince investigators that her shock she left the consulate alive as the saudi government originally insisted he had. but turkey has claimed since the beginning that he was killed in cold blood when. i was told

that if we are facing a situation that it's been monstrously planned with an attempt at a vast cover up. when we look at it from this point of view it's a very complicated matter complicated. riyadh has changed its story and now says that she was killed by a rogue group of interrogators acting quote outside the scope of their authority in recent days the saudis tonus turn from indignant to apologetic both the saudi king and crown prince been solomon telephone for shock she son to express their condolences but international pressure is mounting on the kingdom as its allies demand answers and turkish officials may have more to reveal. president regift tie you up everyone has promised in an upcoming speech to parliament to divulge the full details of what happened on october second and the saudi consulate. if you are to come a lot of money. so like you do go to folks on the scene there was

a. well for more let's go now straight to istanbul where date of use dorian jones is standing by and dorian the turkish side as we've been hearing there they've been driving these revelations about death with a steady stream of leaks to the media for weeks now do we have any indication of what erika one can say today with the studio. well i apologize i've just been informed by my producer that dorian jones in fact cannot hear us there in istanbul we were coming to him to ask him a little bit more about this statement that's expected later today from the turkish president. who is expected to as he has said in his words reveal the naked truth about shakti stuff but in the meantime let's turn to some other news now as you can see here we have my colleague esther joining us here on the set she is going to be telling us a little bit more about a story that is coming out of germany and the country is rapidly growing solidest

islamic community salafism is a strict doctrine whose adherence advocate shari'a law and you've actually been investigating this as part of a d w online investigation we know that the turkish government for example but the german government excuse me that they have voiced concerns over the rights of a branch of solace in the country what did you find out in this investigation well we were actually curious of how the scene had changed over the cup last couple of years because it used to be very active and very visible in germany people were handing out on the streets and now the scene has completely vanished and we just wanted to find out why what happened to them others still active so let's find out a little bit more about the solid fisking unity we have this peace and then i'd like to get your reaction there after. they support a radical form of islam and reject democracy and freedom salafist.

it's one of the fastest growing branches of islam in germany that's what the federal domestic intelligence service says in two thousand and eleven german authorities knew of about three thousand eight hundred salafist in the country three years later that number was seven thousand. and by two thousand and seventeen it was ten thousand eight hundred that's almost a tripling in seven years. and this is the salafist stronghold in germany the western state of north rhine-westphalia it's thought there are about three thousand salafist supporters here the regional intelligence agency classifies eight hundred of them as prone to violence authorities watch female salafist particularly carefully as wives and mothers they're important in holding the community together in two thousand and twelve a group of islam ists in germany were caught planning a bomb attack in bonn at least one of the group had salafist connections. salafist

have taken to german town centers preaching and handing out the koran for free in two thousand and sixteen the interior minister banned the group that had organized those giveaways. we don't want terrorism in germany we don't want calls for terrorism to be made here for people to be radicalized here and we don't want terrorism to be exported from germany. but just a month after that statement came this the berlin christmas market attack. anish amery drove a truck into the crowd killing twelve people the twenty four year old from tunisia allegedly belong to a salafist network german salafist even support fellow believers in prison binding them to the cause the w. investigative reporters working on the story found a thriving network. and one of those investigative reporters is esther felton who

rejoins us now what have you found out about the solaces scene here in germany the current state of it well basically we are talking about a third generation of self in germany when the movement started in two thousand and three two thousand and four it was more about missionary work people were standing in streets then when the. rows. it was more and more violent the scene. the people were going to the combat zones and now we're talking about returning so like we just heard in the clip the problem of prisoner assistance becomes more and more important which means that basically people are. writing letters to the people in the prisons and trying to keep them devoted to the faith and that's quite a problem is it seems like it's well organized like there's a very strong network here was there anything surprising or disturbing that you found out during your research well probably the most impressive and emotional

thing for me was my interview with the mother of a terrorist who actually went to syria and was killed there and she is talking about his life story is also her story. about the struggle and she's torn between the feelings as a mother who loves her child no matter what and on the other hand the shock in terror of what he's done because you cannot understand why this happened so many different shades of gray and different levels to all of this and this is actually part of a larger series that we're doing here at g.w. all week right right our website d.w. dot com you can. read a story every day we have reports every day this week we have an overview and now we're having portraits of different people who are all involved in the scene in some way so in-depth reporting on this issue esther fels and thank you so much for joining us this morning to share these revelations and the very latest on this

initiative we appreciate you. we're going to return now to our top story as we mentioned the turkish president to type or to want expected to speak a little bit later today he has pledged to reveal the naked truth when it comes to the killing of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi there in his country for more let's go to istanbul where w.'s dorian jones is standing by with the very latest story and what are we expecting him to say today. what we have to understand is that since this investigation started all the information that has come out these drips and drabs has been leaks nothing come from nothing that can be confirmed and nothing that is official that is going to change today with the turkish president officially presenting the investigation and what they have now there are two things that everyone will be looking for one is that these leaks allege that there are these people and even videotapes recording the last minutes of life where according

to these leaks he was tortured and then murdered and then by his body dismembered do those tapes exist and will present be presenting them to u.s. president donald trump has called for their release he has demanded that all the information be put out there this is what everyone will be looking for the second thing will be will president directly link the crown prince mohammed bin sultan month to this murder if he does this will be a major ratcheting up of the crisis so everyone probably the world will be looking very closely what president of the one will be saying today and it's interesting to see how the views have changed because for example if we just look from the u.s. perspective donald trump now says that he is not satisfied with the saudi accounts of what happened now reports coming through basically saying that the head of the cia is heading to turkey over the case what. role rather does the u.s. have to play in all of this. i think from the very get go washington has been

trying to limit this crisis we have to realize saudi arabia and in particular the crown prince is recognized as a key ally particularly for donald trump they see him as a main player then they have been concerned that this crisis could spiral out of control and even threaten the crown prince himself so they've been looking to limit this crisis but the problem they've been facing is. through this investigation through these leaks they have continued to escalate the crisis and with growing international diplomatic pressure on both saudi arabia and washington and that is why we've seen a reality. changing its version of events. particularly the president keeping all resetting his position do you see i chiefly is expected to be to look at what turkey has in particular these all to you and videotapes and what is on them that is what donald trump wants he's a cia chief to find out and to report back and i think from there it will the washington will decide where to go from and this could potentially also have real

consequences also when we look internationally the germans for example having a look at arms sales really urging also other european nations to consider whether or not they're going to continue to sell arms to the kingdom how much has this damage the kingdom already dorie and how much worse could it get. i think this is probably potentially one of the worst crisis the kingdom has faced in recent years in even in decades and i think the concern is that the crown prince himself could increasingly be at risk particularly if turkey does have more information to directly link into the crowd but even before this crisis erupted relations with moscow were very bad and it will increase price be too in this crisis or is ready to go for the president has said to find out what everything happened and there will be no whitewash dorian jones in istanbul thank you. well now let's get

a quick check of some other stories that have been making news around the world u.s. national security advisor john bolton is set to hold talks with russian president vladimir putin in moscow after meeting with foreign minister sergei lavrov a day earlier this follows u.s. president donald trump's announcement that washington is ready to pull out of a thirty year old missile treaty and build up its nuclear arsenal. chinese president xi jinping has officially opened the world's longest eve bridge the fifty five kilometer bridge connects macau and hong kong with the chinese mainland construction took nearly a decade and cost some twenty billion dollars the project has been dogged by safety issues and delays and some fear that it will never make it back to its construction costs but it won't make that money back now u.s. president donald trump says that washington will make big cuts in aid to central american countries trunks have been won amala on doris and el salvador had failed

to stop people leaving in a bid to enter the u.s. illegally thousands of migrants are in route through mexico many of them seeking asylum. and staying with the united states its only two weeks until congressional elections and they unprecedented number of women are running for office it's been called a pink wave and is in the thick of it today we profile a republican vying for a seat that her party must win if it's going to keep its razor thin to vote majority in the u.s. senate. marco makes elly first female air force pilot in combat kong with woman running for the u.s. senate in arizona in a race that will help decide which party controls the chambre. and emotional moment for mom excel and the republican primaries she fended off challenge us from the far right now she is her party's hope to hold the open senate seat in a difficult election and i feel very humbled and honored and grateful that. she is

a favorite of the republican establishment and has a reputation as a political moderate garnered from representing a swing district but early in this race she links herself to the president and makes clear she's not pulling her punches this is this is how i see this campaign it's a choice between a do er and a talk between proven ritz and hollywood glitz. now there's nothing wrong with hollywood glitz right. like i am isn't brenda's any one of my opponent brags that she owns over one hundred pairs shoes i only other than the average hundred combat missions serving our country with forty six make sell his military record against her own ponens anti-war activism democrat kirsten cinema is also a congresswoman meanwhile this is a tight race closely watched by both parties george make said he supports trump's

border wall has toughened her stance on immigration and then praised the president despite once calling his comments on acceptable and disgusting we wanted to talk to mark them like sally about her campaign and her support for president from the regular it is mrs female office holders is crazy or low i.q. but make sell they didn't want to talk to us. mesa arizona thousands lined up here to see donald trump he's holding a rally to help stem from awesome x.l.e. what have people here it's self evident why she sides with the president. yes because anyone who doesn't vote for president trump shouldn't live in the united states of america or anybody that backstrom is or how trump is the key to all of this he is the glue that holding all this together he's the driving force so he's a conductor of this trump train everybody's talking about one hundred percent when

the u.s. president arrives the crowd goes wild and trump knows what his supporters want to hear less orating attack from the democrats and dire warnings against a blue waif in the midterms mixed with a lot of praise for mike sally. she's tough and she's smart and she's brave and she could fly out there a plane better than anybody with your next united states senator from arizona of the mix out if you. but this is an important event for mike sell it to keep the support of the republican base. with america is back in arizona is back thanks to the leadership of president jobs. jack do you think you have thought it out. however through when she has to appeal to the broader electorate her state from supporters but also centrist suburban voters and people repulsed by

the president's policies quite a challenge even for a fighter like martha x.l.e. . and now to another big fight but on the sports front the tournament featuring the best football clubs in europe the champions league for turns today at byron munich taking on eighty k. athens biomes recent troubles have been well documented a run of four matches without a victory but finally a three one win against wolves over the weekend took some pressure off of byron's coach. peace and quiet finally even of buying. always stressed there were no distractions his focus was on his team's performance after the very immediate crisis has seemingly come to an end common a bubble ease his return to the team but i am this them on the negative there's always a certain restlessness of buying when you don't win four games in a row. and of course we know just that during the training sessions in recent weeks

it's a me and i was coming together again with a good performance and now we want to start a winning streak he said. zeke isn't much to get. victories are always important and winning comes first and foremost you know and second is execution. you know yourself you don't win points from the ladder with that kind of pull to get the assignments is crystal clear by and starting lineup isn't. what you want to send disputes the wrong. fission is part of the game of football association i already have an idea in my head but i won't tell you what it is. what about their opponents a cantons they've lost both their games in the champions league so far this season instead bottom of creepy it's all or nothing for the great champions defeated by and would see their european campaign all but over and a bunch of you know it and i'm unsure if it's a team that has nothing to lose a team that's technically very strong greek footballers are all technically very

good and that's why we have to be on our guard but if we play like we did over the weekend then i'm convinced that we can also win this so it could be good. for says here now and it's a down day for stocks in asia that's true donald trump's latest threats over a new nuclear arms race as well as the fall of following the murder of a saudi arabian journalists have made investors nervous also the looming standoff between roman brussels over italy's budget and uncertainty around the u.s. mid-term elections have done little to help sentiment and all that while the trade dispute between washington and beijing continues to cause a long shadow on world trade so japan's nikkei fell two point four percent today and south korea's costly is currently losing almost three percent. the crisis triggered by the killing off journalist remark is. plants to attract and retain international stock market investors foreigners sold

a total of one point one billion u.s. dollars of saudi stocks last week alone over fears that possible international sanctions against the king after the. business meanwhile more and more high profile figures pull out of a massive investor conference. today u.s. treasury. chief christine lagarde and french finance minister. have all cancelled and. c.e.o. of german industrial giant. now also announced that he will stay away opiate very reluctantly. preparations are well underway the mood though is muted said his future investment initiative a conference known by some as davos in the desert kicks off in riyadh on tuesday but the number of participants is dwindling delicious business leader to pull out at the event is this man seaman c.e.o. joe kayser he announced his withdrawal following pressure to respond to allegations

of saudi involvement in the killing of journalist jamal to shoot a turnaround last week when casey said he was still planning to attend in a statement posted on his linked in profile he said i will not attend the future investment initiative twenty eighteen it's the cleanest decision but not the most courageous one and it's not a decision against the kingdom or its people it's a decision based on how much responsibility one can assume at one time for now the truth must be found and justice must be served. cases one of several business leaders who find themselves in a moral quandary in the run up to the side of the conference but the wording of his statement especially his eagerness not to condemn his would be host it's a reminder that for many companies this is. i'm marilee a tradeoff between profits and p.r. . so want to do with saudi arabia let's bring in thomas up about he's a member of parliament for the normally business friendly opposition liberal party

which has business leaders to pull out of that conference must not a bag of cement posts ok as i said if we stop talking to companies where people go missing we can stop doing business altogether china for example isn't exactly friendly with a position journalist neither is to give the philippines is your party now saying we should stop doing business with china for example well i'm not only talking as a politician that all the talking is somebody who was serving for fifteen years on the board of management of major corporations. i think kayser even at the beck that the whole legal opinion or little scenery all around the world distance itself from saudi every saudi arabian king to be on the jambs. to distance itself from participation. doing business you know in

a case where the letter is being disclosed probably in very very few hours turkish government. is not possible well in that respect a look at now if we look at c.e.o. the c.e.o. of the french oil giant total he is going intending that business shouldn't business leave the morals to politics and make money where it is to be made other one because otherwise somebody else will. well it still is specially we ensure many in world war two we knew what it means if politics has had two weeks training affiliation. business and business and respectively business but politics i do not believe in milton friedman saying the business of business is doing business business has also a political responsibility business leaders ahmad also moral leaders in our well nowadays but if we stop talking to contras like saudi arabia then doesn't try to

also help overcome differences in the long run well case or it was not the first time. he met cooking after the annexation of the crimean peninsula and he met him in a time when nobody else would meet him and he talked about this meeting and that and action as a short turbulence for in a long term planning he obviously had lost the sense then it's time to distance himself from from a system which is highly probably guilty. of a murderous act now let's see what's county after this this doser of the turkish government and that will tighten the run after but there is a style of politics don't dis ruled yeah you do not need. under us government

exactly at that time. investment decisions need to be taken you have to distance yourself from that issue toss up about the f.t.p. liberal party in the german bonus talk thank you very much thank you. a judge in the us has slashed the punitive damages are a chemical company monsanto asked to pay a formal groundskeeper from almost twenty two hundred ninety two seventy eight million dollars at the same time the caught up held a jury's finding that monsanto's weed killer caused the man's cancer says it is pleased with the reduced reward but still plan to appeal the verdict saying that there is no scientific proof linked its best linking its bestselling how besides round up to cancer german chemicals john by a. hundred
