The Committee to Protect Journalists and other press freedom activists hold a candlelight vigil in front of the Saudi Embassy in Washington DC to mark the anniversary of the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, October 2, 2019.
The presiding Saudi court rejected the findings of a UN inquiry by ruling that the killing was not premeditated, rather carried out “at the spur of the moment”. “This despicable murder was done at a diplomatic facility against every diplomatic norm imaginable! We will follow this case to the end regardless how high it goes.”
