Slain Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s fiancée was going to be murdered as well, claimed a bombshell report released by the Istanbul Security Directorate on Thursday.
The new details were part of the report on the directorate’s 2018 activities, which devoted a section to the Khashoggi consulate murder.
Khashoggi was killed and dismembered by a group of Saudi operatives shortly after he entered the Consulate of Saudi Arabia in Istanbul on Oct. 2, last year.
Riyadh offered various, conflicting narratives to explain his disappearance before acknowledging he was murdered in the diplomatic building, seeking to blame his death on a botched rendition operation carried out by rogue agents.
