Hatice Cengiz, fiancée of slain Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, speaks to the media outside the Saudi Arabian Consulate, in Istanbul, Turkey, on March 4, 2021.The fiancée of slain Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi said on Thursday that world leaders should not maintain relations with a “murderer”, after a U.S. intelligence report implicated Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler in his killing.
A U.S. intelligence report released last Friday said Prince Mohammed had approved the operation to kill or capture Khashoggi in Oct. 2018. The Saudi government has denied any involvement by the crown prince and rejected the report’s findings.While Washington imposed sanctions on some of those involved, it spared the crown prince himself.
“That it was said there would be no sanctions against the person who gave the order for the crime to be committed created a strange dilemma in everyone’s minds. But this could change in the coming days,” she told Reuters in an interview.Cengiz was speaking after a court session of the trial in absentia of 26 Saudi officials over Khashoggi’s killing, in which lawyer Ali Ceylan asked that the U.S. report be added to the case file.
The court heard Edip Yilmaz, a driver for the Saudi consulate, say that on the day of the killing he was told by the head of security that for 20 minutes he should not leave a consulate basement room where he usually spent his time.In September, a Saudi court jailed eight people for between seven and 20 years over the killing, in a trial that critics said lacked transparency. None of the defendants was named.

US is to afraid to do anything against Saudi Arabia! Too afraid to do the right thing, unless it comes to Russia
Saudi is friend of the west, friend don’t go after friend!
those refusing to do anything against Saudis are the ones knew about Saudis' involvement with ISIS, Taliban, & in Zionists' geopolitical desires; those who directly attacked the US on 911. But ecopolitical sanctions are applied against those, who never attacked US but helped US.
I apologize to jamalkhashoggi's fiancée. JustinTrudeau is a pansy and is more worried about the billions of barrels of oil coming to the Canadian Irving Refinery (even though we have that great resource in alberta). JustinTrudeau=Puppet
