let's bring in toby cadman now he's an international human rights lawyer who has followed this case closely toby thank you for joining us what do you make of this verdict and what can you tell us about the people who have been sentenced to death. i think you know i think one of the one of the concerns that we have always expressed was that this was likely to be much more white wash that it wasn't really a credible investigation that it wasn't holding those individuals who were ultimately responsible when it was not. charging them and we've already heard today that 2 senior officials a syrian qatari what were not charged and that both individuals who are closely connected to the marmot been summoned so. i think it is disappointing although not entirely surprising but it is certainly something that the u.s. special report i was kind of on had warned about having justice which was affectively a whitewash that u.n. report you're referring to it did implicate people far higher up in the kingdom the crown prince himself of having known about this killing why hasn't there been an international inv
