The United Nations Human Rights Office announced yesterday it is
beginning an investigation into the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal
Khashoggi.
In a statement, the UN said that an independent panel would seek to establish “the nature and extent of states’ and individuals’ responsibilities for the killing”.
The UN special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, Agnes Callamard, said she would travel to Turkey next week to head an “independent international inquiry” into Khashoggi’s murder in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on 2 October.
British barrister Helena Kennedy and Duarte Nuno Vieira, a pathology expert and professor at the department of legal and forensic medicine at Coimbra University, Portugal, are among the team. Along with Callamard, they are to visit Turkey between 28 January and 3 February and plan to report to the UN Human Rights Council in June.
Callamard said that the findings will be raised at the UN rights office on 19 June.
This announcement comes just days after a Turkish announcement that the country is ready to conduct an investigation into Khashoggi’s murder.
