Saudi Arabia told the United Nations (U.N.) on Monday it would prosecute those responsible for the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at its Istanbul consulate. Bandar Al Aiban, Head of the Saudi government delegation at the first U.N. review of the Kingdom’s record in five years, told the hearing that King Salman had instructed the Saudi Public Prosecutor to “proceed with the investigation into this case according to the applicable laws”, with a view to establishing the facts and “bringing all the perpetrators to justice”. Aiban gave no details on the status or whereabouts of the 18 Saudi nationals detained in connection with the case and repeatedly declined to answer journalists’ questions about them.
