And surely a follow up investigation into the the Security Services and how such an executive could have been carried out by members of the Security Services so to me the the obligation of non picture shows what i am placing a lot of emphasis on and im calling on the authorities of saudi arabia to take the necessary steps to demonstrate to the International Community that they are indeed kmita 20 sure that these crimes hes never repeated do you think they are committed how have the saudis been forthcoming with information about this trial that is that is ongoing in saudi arabia as you say of suspects involved in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. Look im not going to make it a personal issue the fact that the Saudi Arabian government does not want to 2 hours to work with me does not necessarily mean that they are not committed i think however that there is a fundamental problem with the way the government of saudi arabia is approaching the issue they are insisting to treat it. Only as a domestic questions and they are losing our sight of their International Obligations under International Human rights law 1st their executive of the stock casualty is an International Crime the violation some are to support the violation of the right to life the arbitrary private life the overregulation else of the point be shown against enforced disappearance the possible violation of the convention against torture the violations of the Vienna Convention on consular relations the violation sound of point against extraterritorial use of force just to name a few that makes a crime of mr cashel get an International Issue that requires them to treat it their search at the moment the step they have taken are failing to take stock of the real nature of the crime and of their obligation what about the United Nations role in this i mean i dont think we can the United Nations has somewhat been dragging its feet on whether to launch an investigation into the murder of jamal has georgy theyve said that there hasnt been a you know as an official request from either turkey or are another countries what would you like the secretary general of the United Nations to do now that youve released this report. So 1st day i should i like that i am an independent expert that has been mandated by the United Nations to work on the situation of extrajudicial executions so while my inquiry is not a human rights inquiry it is based on a mandate that was given to me by the Member States of the United Nation 2nd i am calling on the secretary general to to establish to appoint a panel of experts who could look into criminal responsibilities i have done the human rights investigation the next step i cannot do is an actual criminal investigation sen i hope that the secretary general we we will do just that i do not believe that he needs the turkey in particular to call on such an investigation formally more generally i think the United Nations as a measure of order to play to ensure that he has the effective instruments and tools to prevent and respond to targeted killings and targeted disappearances than in my report i make arrange every commendations including the establishment of a standing instrument for the investigation of power to the killings so that in the future of this kind of problem that we have confronted over war as the order to do what are we not be happening you said in the report that this is an International Crime with the universe saw jurisdiction if not turkey what other country do you think could take on this this initiative this push for an international inquiry. Sure so 1st i should i like that in my opinion the sick consensus of the killing of mr cashel are so grave in terms of the violations of International Law that in my opinion meet the fresh order of seriousness required for universal jurisdiction so thats the 1st point i am making with regard to the responsibilities of states be signed turkey i am suggesting that the United States has a stake in india killing nice turk and in solving the killing mr cashel he was a resident of the United States his words a norn and really not one member of the press corps in the United States and in many ways in my opinion the embodiment of for them and tore freedom and principle within the american constitution which is a 1st amendment for those reasons i believe the United States as a stake in person when all means such as the spores or to ensure that accountability is delivered including a trial but the United States says you know or end perhaps i should differentiate here between the u. S. Congress and the Trump Administration the administration of the us president has somewhat been reluctant to point the finger of blame at the saudi leadership over the murder of Jamal Khashoggi they have wanted to sweep this under the rug how how hopeful are you that what you have said today in this report will lead to more action from the United States and in particular from the trumpet ministration look at i think the United States is a country where the judicial system and the judges shoreline institutions remain independent and partial if there are poor seedings initiatives. By individual spy plenty if there i see no or no or systemic reasons that would prevent those complaints to pour sea as. The american system saw mr the president and others for me out there or misgivings regarding a trial and regarding criminal or civil investigation but i do not think that this will impact on american institutions including the Justice System or indeed on the American Congress or senate to proceed with what they see to be their their key function just coming back to the child that is ongoing in saudi arabia do you think that those on trial right now and of course we have very Little Information information about whats unfolding inside saudi arabia do you think that the people responsible indeed for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi are the ones on trial right now. Look based on what i have been able to gather. The 11 individuals that are currently on trial. Include those that where in the room during the killing of mr cash shogi and in the vicinity of the room. So they were involved in the commission of the crime the question i am of course is about other individuals then could someone that has been often mentioned as having incited and altered the crime that can turn you that has been identified by the saudi prosecutor and was indeed the object of administrative measures since he was supposedly of fired from his position but he has not been indicted there are number of other individuals that have not been indicted thus far so this hour raises a ranch of red flag but importantly are not transparent though the trial is being at held behind closed doors it is their identities it is not the identities of those on trial has not been made public by the authorities even though all it me and sister again even though the executor of mr casualty is an International Crime and it is a crime for which the International Community as as much interest and has a role to play misc alomar one last question before we let you go and we do appreciate your time thank you so much youve done this investigation now youve made recommendations to the International Community but are you hold for are you optimistic that there will ever be accountability in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. I am hopeful because otherwise i will not be working in human rights but i am also realistic and pragmatic. I believe that that culpability for mr cashel he can take many forms judicial accountability is of course the highest objective and something that i am hoping we if we lap and but beside judicial accountability we also need to look for other forms of accountability they can be diplomatic they can be political they can be symbolic in my report i make a ranch of recommendations such as the establishment of special forms to support press freedom in the new dont least the the the creation of the establishment of different symbolic. Ever conferences anything that would be based on what mr cashel you stood for at the end of these life so that we ensure that his commitment to democracy commitment to human rights commitment to press freedom to find a realisation through the actions of individuals states and Civil Society and the media. My colleague talking to un special rapporteur. About a 101. 00 page report into the motor of lets take this on we might kind of is standing by washington d. C. With all the action for the United States but 1st lets go to hashem borrow whos stumbled and how should before you talk about the turkish reaction we have now heard from the saudi administration. Indeed Nicholas Saadi statement is so far enough as i village where hit back at the final report issued by the special saying that it contains clear contradiction is and baseless allegations insisting that the saudis are suspects who are being. Prosecuted in saudi arabia are being prosecuted under the sod the law and this is an international not an issue of National Sovereignty and i think one of the reasons assad today are very upset about the findings of the inquiry is because hes talking about the implication of. Personalities of the highest levels of the of the government and number 2 it is. Also questioning the proceeding to saudi arabia saying that they dont comply with International Stand so that Society Perspective but what about the turkish government. Is clearly a report that is going to give impetus to the turkish government when it comes to putting more pressure on the International Community and the size of government in particular to launch an International Investigation turkey has been saying that. Saudi arabia is stalling the investigation size arabia is undermining chances to figure out who gave the order to kill. The whereabouts of his remains today this turkish but its awful enough theres more to show. Said that his strongly endorsers the findings of the inquiry and particularly the call for the perpetrators to be prosecuted and i think now the next move would be is most likely turkey is going to wait for any signal from the saudi government that if he is willing to further cooperate if that doesnt happen i think that we push ahead for the need to start a criminal investigation and for the United Nations to move forward or how should thanks very much to my habit of in istanbul lets go to washington d. C. Mike hanna joins us from there and mike how much pressure if any will this report put on the u. S. Administration to actually take a lead in this. Well certainly nic its going to ratchet up pressure between congress and the Trump Administration congress has been attempting to block any arms sales to saudi arabia for example because of its involvement in the war in yemen and because of its human rights record including the murder of Jamal Khashoggi now congress has passed a series of laws blocking arms sales for example however President Trump has vetoed these laws hes gone even further in fact and hes declared an emergency in order to circumvent congress to put through an 8000000000 dollars arms bill to solve the now this is absolutely infuriated congress they indeed have struck back there are some 22 resolutions in congress waiting to go blocking u. S. Relations with saudi arabia so certainly this is going to ratchet up the tension between the administration and Congress Congress absolutely insistent that there must be accountability a potion for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi now right at the beginning of this whole series of events the senate sent President Trump a formal letter insisting that he investigate and apportion accountability for khashoggi is murder the president simply defied that hes never formally responded to that senator request now this latest report is likely to up the senates efforts and congress as a whole to aid find out accountability for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi remembering of course that he was a u. S. Resident but also intensify its efforts to block those arms sales to saudi arabia as a punitive measure certainly clear that there is a need for some kind of investigation the intense investigation indeed what about the u. N. Once again more traction though no. Well a possibly could particularly where you had the investigator actually now making a request to the secretary general to formulate some kind of criminal investigative body she made very clear that her investigation has already human rights basis she is unable to be able to go down the criminal investigation that it would appear shes indicating its up to the secretary general but the secretary generals position has been very clear to he says that they have needs to be some 3rd country parties such as turkey or another state to make that request to the u. N. To make the request to him to conduct such an investigation now the investigators saying no that is not the case contradicting the secretary generals position saying that her recommended should be enough for the secretary general to initiate a full investigation into the murder of a criminal investigation well wait and see whether the secretary general does mike thanks very much my kind of reporting there from washington d.

Is an extrajudicial killing for which saudi arabia is responsible but its according to a damning report by the un special rapporteur 101. 00 page report details taped conversations about disposing of a body in the moments before because a ride to the saudi consulate in istanbul last october well the special reports says that the killing is an International Crime with universal jurisdiction shes the u. N. Secretary general and 10 you could terrorist to launch a criminal inquiry into the case but saudi arabia says only it has you authority to look into the case and describes the reported full of clear contradictions and baseless allegations.
