New revelations about the heinous murder of Jamal Khashoggi – the journalist killed as he tried to obtain documents in preparation for his marriage. One of the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s killers was heard saying on tape: “I know how to cut” in a recording of the killing that Turkey shared with US and European officials, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Friday.
Turkish president, Erdogan said in a speech in Instabul:
“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, where Khashoggi was killed inside the Saudi consulate on Oct. 2.

The US-based Washington Post columnist repeatedly told his killers “I can’t breathe” according to CNN who quoted a credible source who said they had read the entire translated transcript of an audio recording.
Erdogan took the opportunity of his speech to further lambast Saudi Arabia for its inconsistent narrative of how Khashoggi was brutally murdered.
“The prince says Jamal Khashoggi left the consulate. Is Jamal Khashoggi a kid? His fiancee is waiting outside,” Erdogan said.“They think the world is dumb. This nation isn’t dumb and it knows how to hold people accountable,” he added. The murder of Jamal Khashoggi is one of the most brutal examples of tyrannic killings of modern times. Khashoggi was a prominent critic of 33 year old Saudi Prince, Mohammed Bin Salman. No evidence has been produced of his guilt, but there is wide suspicion that he must have been aware of the plan to kill him.

The CIA have said Bin Salman’s brother called Khashoggi the day before the Washington based journalist travelled to Turkey to obtain documents that would enable him to marry his fiancee. Salman’s brother has vehemently denied the claim, and no evidence has yet been openly provided to prove otherwise. The world awaits definitive proof of the perpetrators and conspirators of this awful crime. If Turkey have clear audio evidence of the murder, it is only a matter of time before that is proof is openly heard.
