ISTANBUL — Turkey has shared an audio recording of the final moments of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s life with its Western allies, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, as he continues to pile pressure on Riyadh to come clean about its suspected role in the killing at its Istanbul consulate.
Khashoggi, a columnist with the Washington Post who wrote critically about Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman, vanished after entering the Saudi Consulate on Oct. 2. Initially, the kingdom denied it knew of his whereabouts, but repeatedly changed its story as mounting evidence emerged and has since acknowledged he was killed at its mission in a premediated attack.
