New footage reportedly shows Saudi hitmen carrying Khashoggi body parts in bags
Press TV - Turkish media have aired new video footage, which shows members of a Saudi hit squad carrying bags reportedly containing the remains of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who was assassinated inside Riyadhs consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.

A Turkish investigation has found that the body of Khashoggi an outspoken critic of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had been dismembered shortly after his murder inside the diplomatic mission on October 2.

According to the findings of the probe, a 15-member alleged hit squad was sent to kill the journalist in a premeditated murder operation.

It was later reported that Khashoggis killers may have taken his dismembered body out of Turkey in luggage.

Turkish news channel A Haber has now released a new video, showing the arrival of the Saudi teams members at the Saudi consul-generals residence located several hundred meters from the consulate on the day Khashoggi was murdered.

They are said to be transferring the journalists body parts in five suitcases and two black plastic bags.

No evidence has yet shown the suitcases and bags were taken out of the counsels residence.

Turkish police and forensic investigators conducted a thorough search of the Saudi consul generals residence in the aftermath of the murder.

Reports said at the time that they have collectedsamples which could be convincing in terms of evidence in the case of the killing.

The council Mohammed al-Otaibi fled Istanbul to Riyadh four days after Khashoggis murder and only hours after Turkish investigators began their search for evidence.

The murder sparked international outrage against the Saudi kingdom and its crown prince, who is widely believed to have ordered the killing.

Saudi officials have sought to distance bin Salman from the murder, insisting Khashoggi was killed in a rogue operation, only after initially claiming he had left the building unharmed.
