yes well actually first i must emphasize that turkish public opinion also put a lot of pressure on turkish government to enlighten the scase because it also became a national issue for turkey as well however we have been seeing today that organization of islamic kountry is who are standing by saudi arabia as saying that saudi arabia was late to serve forms that were mainly targeted and also we heard to palestine's muhammad of boss jordan and united arab emirates standing by is saudi arabia over jim aftershocks use case then we also saw that today in saudi arabia has launched a campaign on social media and it was criticized by many social media users that they were showing they were actually presenting themselves as the victims of. a case where the wycked is actually journalist who has disappeared for murder and twelve days but of course it seems like while turkey is trying to ally with the west and put pressure international pressure over saudi arabia saudi arabia is also trying to form a pact for itself with the muslim and arab allies who will see what happens time progresses for the mome

where held a seven hour long meetings with the turkish counterpart confident and last night. of course last night for turkey when she went back to united states she briefed the american president donald trump and also turkey's intelligence chief comfy done briefed turkey's president reject yesterday in the late afternoon so after after two intelligence agencies exchanged information and intelligence we have a witness that saudi arabian often shows the son at mit at the us that this is a premeditated murder so it seems like as long as there is more international pressure. over saudi arabia saudis would be a push for admitting more but however they seem they seem reluctant to corporate with the turkish persecutors office especially regarding this search on the well in in the residence. turkish police took some water samples and the first initial reports suggest that there was nobody in that in that world. turkish officials want to do a proper search because this well is at least more than twenty meters long and there there is at least six or seven meters of water but the saudis

footage shows what turkish security services say is a fifteen member saudi intelligence team arriving in istanbul just one day before construction is appointment at the consulate security services believe the team was involved in the journalist's disappearance a black van is later seen leaving the consulate and then stopping at the residence of the consul general she was once close to the royal family but then fell out and is now considered a dissident by the saudi regime he was writing for publications such as the washington post. for the very latest i'm joined by our correspondent in istanbul who you're high on julio why did turkey put these pictures in the public domain and what was it trying to demonstrate it. well the footage released today is security camera footage from different locations from the istanbul app poured from outside the saudi consulate here in istanbul and from two hotels and it is supposed to support the turkish authorities claim that a team of saudi agents was involved in. the disappearance that these agents indeed arrived on the very same day the day she enter

egypt and the turkish president named. the body still hasn't been found more than three weeks after he was last seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul turkish investigators have been given permission to search a while in the saudi consul general presidents and u.s. president has piled on the pressure calling it the worst cover up in the history of cover ups all trump suggested the ultimate responsibility for the show of his death could lie with the crown prince the turkish official say shortly before the saudi crown prince left for that investment conference he spoke to turkey's president on the phone their first conversation sense the killing at tapper one is demanding saudi arabia extradite those responsible to face trial in turkey. you know you did . we are determined not to allow a cover up of this murder and to make sure all those responsible from those who ordered it to those who carried it out will not be allowed to avoid justice this is not only a responsibility to trim oh sure he was murdered viciously in o

authorities officially really the problem here is that turkish authorities the turkish investigators have been leaking bits and pieces of information to the media in the past weeks but have not officially yet tabled their evidence so they have left things quite murky and we are waiting really for more facts more evidence to emerge from this any investigation any time soon as you leon tracking the latest developments for us there in istanbul thank you. canada has become the second country after little guy to legalize recreational marijuana people there can now buy possess and use small amounts of the drug legalizing marijuana was a campaign promise of prime minister justin trudeau he says the move will protect minors and reduce organized crime but not everyone agrees. it. was. a very high five as canada's first legal recreational marijuana transaction takes place buyers had waited for hours literally lining up around the block. i'm so excited i don't think i've ever been as excited for anything else like huge this is like the end of prohibition for alcohol pretty much for cannabis rig

so the turkish saudi arabian chief prosecutor has arrived in istanbul we are suspecting that he will visit the saudi consulate as well as the saudi consul general's residence because that of course will show seriousness on the part of saudi arabia but there has been little cooperation turkish investigators saying that there has been delays it has slowed down the process i'll give you just the latest example the very fact that turkish investigators have not been able to search a well in the consul general's residence and of course you know the issue of finding the body. is an important one because that will then confer which of the various narratives the saudis have given the saudis have given to the international community wants investigators know what the state of the body is in then perhaps the real truth can be revealed. well yes key is finding the body president or the gun says that turkey has other evidence other information which is still not made public and it will make it public at the right time turkish strategy really has been to leak the evidence is there even c.c.t.v. foo

why is saudi arabia allowing turkish officials to enter the consulate at all. well saudi arabia still says all the murder allegations are baseless that's correct but also pressure on them is is growing really and this might be an attempt to appease its allies the international community i mean germany britain france have jointly called for a credible investigation into mr disappearance we've heard american lawmakers threatening tough punitive action it remains to be seen what president trump will say and will do he sent his secretary of state might bump a zero to saudi arabia later he had to turkey so pressure is mounting and really everybody is now waiting for the saudis to come up with some substantial and says because everybody is quite sure that this case this scandal really will not just go away it's not going away it seems to be becoming more international by the day a correspondent julie hot on the story for us tonight in istanbul julia thank you. germany has released an accomplice in the september eleventh attacks on the united states and accomplice fro

a turkish newspaper has published the names and details of those fifteen men it says are involved in the disappearance of khashoggi according to turkish state news one of the individuals is a top forensics expert with the saudi government all of the men aged between thirty and fifty seven years old their information was tracked down via open source internet tools by several on line research as well stephanie decker joins us from outside the saudi consulate in istanbul stephanie so many leaks to various media outlets from this turkish investigation but still nothing official on record. absolutely i mean waking up this morning and seeing the amount of information that had been leaked overnight to various publications as you mentioned there you know the pictures of the fifteen the names the identities the ages and what time they came in and out and then you had as you mentioned the washington post with those intercepts that u.s. intelligence found and then you had the new york times with gruesome detail reading or a saying that this was authorized according to turkish authorities at the

these other fifteen men turkish media say are linked to the disappearance of saudi journalists as. their regional line up was first published in the turkish pro-government newspaper new york times says it's identified that some of them may have links to saudi prince muhammad bin salma knock out other lizzie's more threat is described as a diplomat assigned to the saudi embassy in london eleven years ago this is one of several photos the newspapers published showing the tread with prince solomon another man is named as. a hobby and york times says a saudi news has reported that someone with that name was promoted to lieutenant in the royal guard for bravery for defending prince someone's palace in jeddah the newspaper also says an additional alleged member of the saudi team mohamed saad runny has the same name as another member of the royal god now this man is reported to be salah muhammad too by the turkish investigators say he's an expert in autopsies for saudi arabia's internal security agency the turks also say meshad sonny is a lieutenant in the saudi air force born in one thou

widely cited by turkish officials to have been dismembered and disposal. well, what happened to that? what was the role of the saudi crown prince, mohammed bin salman? turkish officials are saying a number of yea rs officials are saying a number of years personal protection team were directly involved in this alleged murder. there are a lot of questions to be asked. i was seeing on the wires that the senior us senator lindsey graham has said to say he is an understatement. that is the thing that will have to be explained now is how they can apparently say one thing at the beginning of this affair, over two weeks ago now, say nothing for such a long period of time, and now say their preliminary investigations give these results, that he was killed in the consulate, that he was killed in the consulate, that there are now 18 arrests of saudi citizens. and, a slightly more technical point, but interesting, saudi arabia's king salman has ordered a restructuring of the command of the general intelligence agency. what is interesting about thatis agency. what is i

that she died as a result of a fistfight turkish official security sources and the turkish media the government media they've all made it very very clear that they believe this was a planned operation the latest leak today showing that one of the men and this fifteen man group he was a body double a decor he was used he actually wore she's clothes he left the consulate building from the back and he went to downtown istanbul he he changed his clothes in a public bathroom so the question really is why you do need a double in a team if you are not planning to kill him and why do you need a forensic expert on that team now it seems that the turkish authorities could have other evidence that they are not showing the world and maybe that is what they're going to show the u.s. administration to convince it really to take a tougher stance against mohamed bin sound man because the feeling here is that muhammad has been summoned the crown prince of saudi arabia was responsible for this murder he ordered this murder and by firing five officials who are close to him really is just not enough all

s last minutes a very gruesome account actually turkish media are citing sources who reportedly listen to this recording the reports we're reading say that it took seven minutes to dismember his body so very gruesome details turkish media are reporting about but this has and let me emphasize this has not been confirmed by turkish authorities yet so there are still just reports aren't you leon with the very latest for us from istanbul thank you. european union leaders will meet later today to try to break the deadlock that is holding up a deal for britain to pull out of the e.u. the issue of the irish border is proving to be the main stumbling block as it stands now northern ireland would become the u.k.'s only land border with the e.u. both sides agree there should not be a hard border between northern ireland and the irish republic but they don't agree on how to get around it germany's chancellor angela merkel told parliament in berlin there was still a chance for an accord with britain to leave the e.u. but she was preparing for the possibility of a no deal breaker. it was one year a

turkish government ask what hundred million dollars and and then the prime minister says turkish independence economical or otherwise is very very important they say yet again look what they what they do one hundred million dollars they ask the usa to. give you. more importantly. mystery. has been welcomed with a great support and now you see that you see this what kind of. games they have been playing for for this country. and most importantly in other news here america accepts to. lend money to turkey and you see it there. when it comes to a plane and you need a plane man manufacturing well because of to aid from the usa they accepted to stop to manufacture no planes in turkey and you had say told us that look we will provide give it to planes whatever you want why do you need to make them in your own country so all these projects that we had in turkey for a strong offer a better turkey has been stopped with the agreement of the c.h.p. in the past so if those projects hadn't come to a sort of stop or. if they had gone ahead turkey would have been in a much much stronger place in a much bett

but a turkish court chose to release him early. he just landed at joint base andrews just moments ago. earlier today, president trump celebrated brunson's newfound freedom. >> we're very honored to have him back with us. he suffered greatly, but we're very appreciative to a lot of people, a lot of people. >> all right, senior international correspondent ben wedeman joining me now from izmer, turkey, where brunson worked as an evangelical presbyterian pastor. at one point, president trump even threatened to impose large sanctions against turkey if they did not release the pastor. how did this all come to be? >> in fact, president trump did impose sanctions. he froze the assets of the interior and justice ministers because the united states felt that they were connected to the trial of pastor brunson, and then they also imposed tariffs on exports of turkish steel and aluminum and, in addition to that, the congress put a halt to a deal to sell turkey f-35 fighter jets, so the pressure mounted, and it all came down this summer. as a re

also part of that's agreement was as far as we understand from the turkish side telling us that the turkish prosecutors would be able to speak to the consul general and hear from him what's details or information they had what took place on tuesday was extremely. worrying in terms of the idea of collaboration and cooperation that the saudis and sites have been trying to drum up over the past couple of days firstly we saw the consul general decide to get on a flight and departs stumbled part starkey just moments before the investigators were due to go to his house then we saw the investigators gold to the house a police cordon set up around it's pushing the journalist back much like we saw on monday when they came or prior to them coming into the consulate behind me but then they were never allowed to enter the saudi officials that they were i had initially given the green light based on that agreement refused to let them go in so two major setbacks at least or u. turns by the saudi authorities ofter those agreements are made that's the narrative that we are getting from the turkish side unf
