TURKEY Khashoggi: Turkish media says video shows disappearance plot

Turkish media outlets have published CCTV footage which they say shows evidence of a plot linked to missing Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

It shows men said to be Saudi intelligence officers entering and leaving Turkey via Istanbul airport.

On Wednesday US President Donald Trump said he wanted to “get to the bottom” of the case, adding: “We cannot let this happen to reporters, to anybody.”

Broadcast by Turkey’s TRT World channel and apparently garnered from security cameras, the footage shows vehicles driving up to the consulate, including black vans thought to be central to inquiries.

Groups of Saudi men are seen entering Turkey via Istanbul airport, checking in at hotels and later leaving the country.

Turkey’s Sabah newspaper reports that it has identified 15 members of an intelligence team it says was involved in the Saudi’s disappearance. Among them was a forensics expert, it says.
