Tasnim News Agency (Tehran) reports: Nurit Ben the anchor & editor at the i24NEWS_EN posted the video on her twitter account and wrote that the Reuters and AP cameras have caught what appears to be a cleaning crew entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul hours before an expected Turkish inspection of the building. All a full two weeks since Jamal Khashoggi disappeared.

get the U.S. off their backs as well -- not that it's really been on them, but it's a gesture.

will they justify holding an interrogation of a visitor to their consulate in another sovereign country and how long has physical abuse been part of an interrogation?

The band will now play "A Saudi Interrogation in D minor for bone saws and and an error"...

They never should have actually killed him. Mutilated, maimed, mauled, sure. But they crossed a line when they let him die so quickly. It was supposed to take days.

They will have a public beheading, for justice, and to make things right.

The Saudis must have found out the Turkish authorities we're going to or have released the audio/video.

So they don't mind throwing Donny and his administration under the bus. Of course, they spent good money on him.
