Saudi Arabia must hand over the 18 suspects Turkish investigators have identified in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in a sign of its goodwill, Turkey’s president said on Friday, as he announced that the kingdom’s chief prosecutor would visit over the weekend.
“If you want to eliminate this suspicion, the key point for our collaboration is those 18 people,” Recep Tayyip Erdogan said. “If you are unable to make them speak, since the incident took place at the consulate in Istanbul, hand them over to us and let us prosecute them.”
