He told Turkeyโ€™s Anadolu news agency it was now accepted that Khashoggi, who disappeared in Saudi Arabiaโ€™s Istanbul consulate on Oct. 2, was targeted in a pre-meditated murder.

โ€œThe question now is who gave the orders. This is what we are seeking answers to now,โ€ Oktay said. โ€œAnother question is where the body is… There are reports of (the body) being dissolved with acid now. All of these need to be looked atโ€. (Reuters)
