The body of journalist Jamal Khashoggi was dissolved in acid after his murder at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, according to an adviser to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

“The reason they dismembered Khashoggi’s body was to dissolve his remains more easily,” Yamal Aktay said in an interview with Hurriyet Daily newspaper. “Now we see that they did not only dismember his body but also vaporized it.”

“The murder of an innocent person is one crime,” Aktay said. “The treatment of the body is a separate crime.”

Late last month, Erdoğan said the 18 men arrested by Saudi Arabia and suspected of involvement in what he called the “gruesome murder” of Khashoggi should face trial in Turkey.

7. They must have really feared Khashoggi, and what he could do to them.

It's only right that the truth he possessed will be completely illuminated as soon as possible. It must be revealed, one way or another.
