ISTANBUL - Crime scene investigators have
found two suitcases and possessions believed to belong to slain
Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi during a search of a Saudi
consulate car in Istanbul, broadcaster CNN Turk reported on
Tuesday.
A Reuters witness said a Saudi team was accompanying the
Turkish investigators as they carried out the search in a car
park where the vehicle was found in Istanbul's Sultangazi
district on Monday.
On its website, CNN Turk said the investigators found a
computer and documents in the car which were said to belong to
Khashoggi.
Turkish officials suspect Khashoggi was killed and
dismembered inside the consulate by Saudi agents on Oct. 2. He
did not appear to be carrying belongings when he entered the
consulate on that day, according to video footage.
The search of the vehicle in the car park has been halted
and will resume on Wednesday morning, the broadcaster said.
