UN calls for ‘credible’ probe into Khashoggi murder
UN chief Antonio Guterres calls for a “credible” probe into journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s murder in Saudi Arabia’s consulate in Istanbul.
“It is absolutely essential to have a credible investigation and to have the punishment of those that were guilty,” Guterres says at a conference in Doha.
The UN chief says he has no information on the case except what has been reported in the media.
Khashoggi, a Saudi contributor to the Washington Post, was killed on October 2 shortly after entering the kingdom’s consulate in what Riyadh called a “rogue” operation.
