An investigation by Al Jazeera into the assassination of the journalist also revealed that the burning of the outdoor furnace was monitored by the Turkish authorities.

Traces of the Khashoggi’s blood were also found on the walls of the Saudi consul’s office.
According to the US intelligence agencies, the murder was enacted upon orders by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud. (ANI)
