the murder ofjamal khashoggi in a diplomatic facility must concern us all greatly. e pompeo stated, the united states does not tolerated this kind of ruthless action to silence mr khashoggi, a journalist, through violence. failure of any one nation to adhere to international norms and the rule of law undermines riyadh's stability at a time when it is needed most. as president trump noted, we are going to get to the bottom of it. 0ur security correspondent frank gardner has been analysing how the killing could further impact us—saudi relations. i think it is probably the biggest strain on us—saudi relations since the 9/11 attacks in 2001 and it has overshadowed the security conference here in bahrain. you saw the words there, the saudi foreign minister was very defensive. slightly glossing over the fact that saudi arabia denied for weeks that jamal khashoggi had even been murdered. they were sticking to this nonsense claim that he had walked out of the consulate when, in fact, a body double walked out. i think what people are struggling to cope with is the idea that 1

earlier, i spoke to david hearst, editor of middfle east eye and a friend ofjamal khashoggi. m what he made of the saudi explanation for mr khashoggi's death. it is just not credible. and why donald trump says it is is beyond me. i think this is going to, as your correspondent said, raise many more questions than answers. it does not explain the sort of two main elements of premeditation involved in this. one was the clearing of staff before jamal khashoggi endor. second is the presence of an expert in cutting up bodies quickly. and to just happen to have on him a bonesaw. we know from what the saudi are solidly authority say, 18 people have been arrested and two senior people have been dismissed. the crown prince himself is going to be in charge of a committee looking at reorganising the intelligence services. the impression at least left is that this was some kind of rogue operation. do you buy that?|j don't. rogue operation. do you buy that?” don't. seven of his close personal detail, these are named people, identified people, it is not conjecture, it does not exist on the

international affairs right now is what president erdogan of turkey has said about the murder ofjamal khashoggiurnalist killed in istanbul. does the british government accept that he was murdered on orders that go to the very top of the saudi state? we can certainly take the first half of that sentence, he was undoubtedly murdered. president erdogan has outlined today how it was planned, and that is the question, how far up the line did it go? the foreign secretary has made absolutely clear that we are appalled by this incident, and there are many unanswered questions and explanations. so i think over the next few days, more facts will emerge, which will allow us to have a clear view about what further steps we might consider taking. you talk of facts emerging all the time. the latest news reporting we have suggests that body parts have now been found. this is a truly gruesome exercise of investigation, but do you in the british government believe that the saudi arabian government is in any way co—operating satisfactorily with the turkish investigation? well, we have had some very, i think, unc

these are the last pictures ofjamal khashoggi and his fiancee just hours before he was murdered. ill—fated visit to the saudi consulate almost three weeks ago. now look at this picture, turkish investigators believe this is one of the saudi hit squad chosen as a body double of mr kashoggi, wearing very similar close. later the double was seen safe on the streets of istanbul after the murder. could this be part ofa after the murder. could this be part of a huge saudi cover—up? significantly, donald trump is now suggesting he does not by the changing saudi stories. after speaking again to the crown prince, but also hearing from his own american investigators. in saudi arabia, we will know very soon, we have tremendously talented people that do this stuff very well, they're coming back tonight or tomorrow, and i will know very soon. and i am unsatisfied with whatever. turkish police clearly believe they have assembled a powerful case against saudi arabia. today, they we re against saudi arabia. today, they were at a car park to search a car with saudi diplomatic plates, possibly aba

there needs to be a credible investigation to identify those responsible for the disappearance ofjamal khashoggiat they are held to account. what happens from now on is absolutely up to saudi arabia. they must have seen the huge international concern from the united states, and now from britain, france and germany and what they need to do is co—operate fully with the investigation that the turks are asking us to do and to get to the bottom of this. a saudi delegation arrived in turkey on friday. if saudi arabia has nothing to hide, mr hunt says, they should and will co—operate. it's been 12 days since jamal khashoggi disappeared. most officials here at the foreign office already feared the worst. the hope is that by issuing this highly unusual joint statement, britain, france and germany can persuade saudi arabia, finally, to tell us what they know. but will that happen? in its own statement today saudi arabia dismissed what it called a campaign of false allegations. and it issued a warning of its own... that sounded like a thinly veiled threat to wield oil as a weapon. the saudi embassy in wash

for the disappearance of jamal khashoggi those bearing responsibility for the disappearance ofjamal khashoggithey are held to account. we encourage joint saudi— turkish efforts in that regard and expect the saudi government to provide a complete and detailed response. we have conveyed this message directly to the saudi authorities. so i think obviously an indication first about a reminder of the fact that as members of the eu at the moment britain intends to adopt a common position as far as it possibly can on external matters, and regularly talks with the french and regularly talks with the french and germans in this regard. the statement also makes reference to the fact that the eu foreign affairs spokeswoman has criticised and expressed concern about what happened to jamal khashoggi, as has the un secretary general to the bbc yesterday. i think the key part of the statement is that encouraging joint saudi— turkish efforts and expecting a complete and detailed explanation of what happened and what the saudi government knows about what happened. it will be interesting to see what the saudi r

let‘s talk to some of those who will speak at the memorial ofjamal khashoggi this evening. sonal experience, i used to be an imam at one of the saudi funded mosques in london, i was fired within the same week as the death of jamal khashoggi because i criticised the government. i wrote about it and i said where is the body, we should have a funeral for this man and they should admit what they have done. immediately i was fired. that‘s not evidence that the crown prince ordered the killing. previously i've had the same problem with the same mosque, they don‘t like free spirit, i have an agreement with them i can say what i want. previous crown princess and kings have tolerated mild criticism from outside but the fact this is an intolerant crown prince is indicative of the things he is doing across the globe to saudi citizens. why didn‘t he kill you? i‘m not saudi, i suppose, citizens. why didn‘t he kill you? i‘m not saudi, isuppose, there citizens. why didn‘t he kill you? i‘m not saudi, i suppose, there is no interest in killing me, i‘m just a meagre imam in his mosque. what i

it's mohammed bin salman, crown prince of saudi arabia, meeting the son ofjamal khashoggi, a dissidentjournalistudis now admit was murdered by their own intelligence officers. the expression on salah khashoggi's face is hard to interpret. if the allegations are correct, he is shaking hands with the man who ordered his father's death. this week, prince salman condemned the killing, turkey pulled back from publicly accusing him, and only germany decided to suspend arms sales. mustapha, do you think that the prince bin salman is out of the woods? is he safe now? it looks like it, absolutely. it all depends on his father. he is the ultimate authority. he is the guy who decides what. but let's notjump to any conclusion now because things take their own course in the gulf. we might find an action on his fate maybe later in one, two or three years down the road. that is how things go. that is, of course, if he is confirmed to be behind the killing. but in my opinion, the question of who actually ordered the killing will never be known, in my view. for the rest of our lives. that is how things are anywa
