Saudi Seeks Turkey Cooperation Deal on Khashoggi Probe

Saudi Arabia has requested Turkey sign a cooperation deal on a probe into the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, killed and dismembered in his country's Istanbul consulate, the prosecution said Thursday.

The public prosecutor's office "requested the brotherly Turkish authorities to sign a special cooperation mechanism specific to this case in order to provide them with the results of the investigation," read a statement carried on the state SPA news agency.

"The public prosecutor is still awaiting a response to these requests."
