admitted the journalist had been killed but it was it but he says denied that crown prince mohammed bin salmond was involved in the plot the saudi prosecutors on thursday said they're seeking the death penalty for five nationals involved in mystical show she is death. so six weeks. there was a funeral today. well yes you have to know that islamic custom places a huge importance on the proper handling of the dead are usually mandating a quick burial but as you said after six weeks a body or the remains off his body have still not been found so what we saw today was a symbolic funeral prayer here at the historic fati mosque in the east let's remember turkish authorities say that he was killed inside the saudi consulate here in istanbul and dismembered and they are also looking into the possibility that his boss he was a body was later discovered in acid so many here in fact are convinced by now that his body will never be found so this is probably one of the reasons why his friends and family decided to have this funeral ceremony today so what we saw today is them gathering in front of an empty t

surrounding this murder at first the denials are strong on october third the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salmond denied all knowledge of the killings saying mr casady disappeared after he left the consulate building an october the eighth his brother bin salman the saudi ambassador to the u.s. repeated the claim but on october the twelfth according to cia sources reported saudi crown prince asked jared krishna president tom son in law why the outrage was because saudi was a dangerous islamist this anger the turkish authorities and that is when the audio recordings started to be leaked. on october thirteenth eleven days after mr casady was killed the turkish newspaper subba published details of the killing it said they came from a recording from his i watch that was sync to his i phone held by his turkish fiance outside the consulate the i watched part is perhaps not correct but the newspaper said the recording was of the journalist being tortured and then murdered this is when the picture and the response started to change with such grim and irrefutable evidence it was difficult for this out and

he also described saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin salmond as unstable and unreliable a vote to cut assistance to riyadh for the war in yemen could also happen in weeks . stay with us witness is up next buy for now.

let's go back to our top story that lisa's revelation linking the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salmond to the murder of the saudi journalist from our show on october the second inside the sutta consulate in istanbul joining us now james dorsey he's an author and a senior fellow at the s. rajaratnam school of international studies he joins us from singapore james dorsey we've got this quote running around now from mike pence the u.s. vice president vowing that the u.s. will hold the murderess of jamal khashoggi to account what does that mean i think it remains to be seen what i think we are stay is that it's becoming more and more difficult. conference had been somebody from the consequences of what happened. it is doubtful that the matter is however that if one really reached between the lines of what the washington post of the already what the cia was saying this remains primarily and a little conclusion rather than one that has a smoking gun. and of course your reading of these denials from the crown prince's brother lead been some on the passage to washington from riyadh saying i ne

evidence which links saudi crown prince mohammed bin sound man to the killing of jamal khashoggi a columnist for putting yet newspaper wrote that mohammed bin salmond instructed his brother the ambassador to washington to silence jamal khashoggi as soon as possible this conversation was reportedly captured in a wiretapped phone call. in yemen fighting continued continuing in the port city of a data despite u.s. defense secretary james mattis saying the saudi coalition has stopped its offensive . and the british prime minister trees amaze says a future relationship deal with the e.u. after brics it has now been agreed she called it the right deal for you the u.k. in order to leave the european union the e.u. is cheryl to vote only agreement on sunday the british people want this to be settled they want a good deal that sets us on a course for a brighter future that deal is within our grasp and i am determined to deliver it. well let's go live to. westminster and say this is a deal that's been agreed with the president of the e.u. commission on the future relationship of the united kingdom with the e.u. after bracks it. yes that's right will is but a

prince mohammed bin solomon who have just seen the following of course the murder of the journalist amal has shot she in turkey you saw the pictures a moment ago it seems that mohammed bin salmond has found are all the unlikely ally in russia's president vladimir putin who greeted him very warmly let's just see this. so saudi crown prince finding at least one i lie at the g. twenty summit. let's take you live to wayne as areason speak to al-jazeera is alan fischer i mean in the lead up to this summit out and there's been a lot of speculation about how world leaders would indeed trees have been sound man when he arrived in argentina. exactly right the talk was there going to be a meeting between him and donald trump donald trump being one of the crown prince's biggest international supporters we were told that that was off the table that don't trump certainly didn't have time when they said joe let's be honest don't trump wants to meet the saudi crown prince donald trump will meet the saudi crown prince there will be a gap in the shadow created tello that to happen so the fact that donald trump isn't meeting him here is significant there were those who said that they were going

basically saying that saudi by a virtue of their wealth has a seat at the table and that seat is mohamed bin salmond's and basically there's nothing anybody can do about that or i mean of course that's the math right the math is that the g. twenty is the group of twenty largest economies in the world and hence they are the ones who are present some percent or the world economy and every one of those members cannot put a condition or a veto on another member participating that's the difference between this summit and the summit of the g. seven that became g eight if you remember and then it became g seven again yes when western democracies basically froze and kicked out russia because they thought it wasn't acting liberally or legitimately enough to be a member of that very exclusive club. but the g. twenty that came on the back of the you know global economic crisis was born out of necessity and hence no one really could put condition whether president xi was democratic enough or liberal enough or prism buton was liberal enough and so on so forth so everyone comes out of necessity and everyone underst

and says one thing that was closely watched has been watched is the presence of crown prince mohammed bin salmond he took a bit of a risk by attending this summit but he's managed to have a few bilateral meetings while he's been there. exactly where we're standing now currently in front of the national opera house which you can see behind me and for the next few hours that is going to be the center of the g. twenty universe you me here helicopters and sirens coming is the world leaders arrive for what will be a cultural event and then they will have dinner before heading your way in new jersey in this cultural event and that there will be further discussions of mohammed bin salmon might well be involved in some of those he was given the diplomatic niceties of being introduced being welcome to the g. twenty summit then there was the question of who would actually spend some time with them well the saudi foreign ministry were very keen to tweak took pictures of him meeting world leaders to emphasize the point that he wasn't being ignored he wasn't being sidelined we knew that a number of leaders ha

republican party there are differing opinions about what action to take against saudi prince prince mohammed bin salmond u.s. media reports say that the cia. a has identified him as ordering the killing the president donald trump says such conclusions a premature he also said that he won't listen to audiotapes of the murder because the content is too graphic of zero swan's when george schultz from washington i did not know for the first time u.s. president donald trump says when he knows exactly what's in the audiotape surrounding the death of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi it's a suffering tape it's a terrible tape i've been fully briefed on it there's no reason for me to hear it in fact i said to the people should i they said you really should and there's no reason i know exactly i know everything that went all the time without having to tell you what happened to trouble revealed this information during an interview he taped on friday the same day that several newspapers reported that according to the cia because she was killed on orders of the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salim on position d
