Prince Mohammed calls Khashoggi killing a 'heinous crime,' vows action against perpetrators

The untimely death of Saudi columnist Jamal Khashoggi was painful for all Saudis and for the entire world and all the perpetrators will be presented in court, said Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman.

“The crime was painful for all Saudis and it is heinous without any justifications. All perpetrators will be presented in court,” said the Crown Prince on the sidelines of the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh now.

He also stated that the cooperation between Saudi and Turkey is unique and that many are trying to create wedge between the two. “I have a message for such people; they will not be able to do it as long as there is King Salman, a Crown Prince called Mohammed Bin Salman, and a President in Turkey called Erdogan.”

He reiterated the fact that both the governments are co-operating on this front.

“We have taken huge steps in developing the economy in the three years and restructuring institutions and national security sectors,” added the Crown Prince.
