One of Khashoggi killers said 'I know how to cut' on audio, Erdogan says
ISTANBUL (Reuters) - One of the killers of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi was heard saying I know how to cut on the audio of the killing Turkey shared with U.S. and European officials, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday.
Erdogan also slammed Riyadh for its changing account of how Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist and prominent critic of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, was murdered at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Oct.2. The journalist had gone there to collect documents for his forthcoming marriage.
The case has caused global outrage and has damaged the international standing of the 33-year-old crown prince, the kingdoms de facto ruler. The U.S. Senate on Thursday delivered a rare rebuke to President Donald Trump for his support of the crown prince, whom it blamed for the killing.
The United States, Germany, France, Canada, we made them all listen... The man clearly says I know how to cut. This man is a soldier. These are all in the audio recordings, Erdogan said in a speech in Istanbul. He did not give further details about the recording.
