Turkey denies Trump claim that US investigators working on missing Saudi case

ANKARA, Turkey — Turkey on Thursday denies a claim by US President Donald Trump that American investigators are working with both Ankara and Riyadh to probe the disappearance in Turkey of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

“The information that the United States has tasked investigators over the Khashoggi case is not correct,” says a Turkish diplomatic source quoted by the state-run Anadolu news agency.

Trump earlier said “we have investigators over there and we’re working with Turkey and frankly we’re working with Saudi Arabia.”
