Two Stories

Jamal Khashoggi entered the Saudi Arabian Consulate in Istanbul on October 2, but did not go out. The Riad government, after repeating the story a few times, maintains a premeditated murder committed by a group that has been lost.

The Turkish government follows a different course: Khashoggi was reportedly killed almost immediately after his entry and his body was then sawed to pieces. According to Turkey, a death squad consisting of eighteen men had arrived, including a specialist doctor equipped with a bone saw.

The remains of the murdered journalist are still missing. A consultant to Turkish President Erdogan suspects the body of being dissolved in acid. The Turkish government is doing research.

Erdogan however stressed in the letter "friendly relations" between the two countries and pleaded without any involvement of King Salman.
