Washington Post publisher blasts ‘sham trial’ in Khashoggi murder after top officials get off by stableford
The publisher of the Washington Post on Monday blasted the Saudi government for what he called a “sham trial” after a Riyadh court sentenced five people to death for the killing of Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, while exonerating top government officials and members of the royal family.
The crown prince has denied knowledge about the murder. President Trump has repeated his denials. Bin Salman has had a close relationship with Trump’s adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner, who has attempted to recruit him into his Middle East peace plan. Story continuesIn addition to the five sentenced to death, three other people were found guilty of covering up the crime and were sentenced to a combined 24 years in prison. Their names were not made public. Three high-ranking officials, including a former top adviser to Mohammed bin Salman, were either acquitted or had charges dropped.
