We’ll investigate Khashoggi murder on our own – Minister Adel Al-Jubeir

Saudi Arabia Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Adel Al-Jubeir has dismissed a United Nations led probe into the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi saying the country’s competent legal system can handle the matter.

Al-Jubeir said the October 2nd slaying of the journalist inside the Saudi consulate in Turkey was a massive tragedy and denied it was sanctioned by Saudi Arabia’s leadership.

In December US senators backed a measure accusing crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman of ordering Khashoggi’s murder.
