A Saudi court has sentenced five people to death on the charges of killing Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi journalist. Khashoggi was an American-based Saudi journalist and he was killed last year in the Saudi Embassy in Istanbul, a city of Turkey. According to the video footage of that time, Khashoggi entered the Embassy and did not come back on October 2, 2018.
Khashoggi was a huge critic of the Saudi government. The Saudi government was alleged of being involved in the sudden disappearance of Khashoggi. According to the allegation, the Saudi government killed Khashoggi as he was working for an American Journal. The murder of Khashoggi damaged the reputation of the Saudi crown prince as the murder rose sorrow and anger at the international level. The crown prince did not visit America and any European country since then.
