The body of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi was found in a well in the residence of the Saudi consul general in Istanbul, Patriotic Party (VATAN) leader Dogu Perincek said.
"Reliable sources from the Istanbul security service told me that the body of Khashoggi was found in a well, which is located in a garden in the residence of the Saudi consul general," Sputnik cited Perincek as saying.
Khashoggi has recently been working as a columnist for The Washington Post. The journalist was last seen entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on October 2.
On October 19, Saudi Arabia, which has initially denied any involvement, admitted that the journalist had been killed in a fight inside the consulate.
