A friend of a Saudi journalist who went missing in Istanbul said officials told him to “make your funeral preparations” as he claimed the Washington Post contributor was killed at the Saudi consulate.
Turan Kislakci, a friend of Jamal Khashoggi and the head of the Turkish-Arab Media Association, said officials also told him they “have evidence he was killed in a barbaric way” and dismembered.
Saudi officials have denied the allegations that Mr Khashoggi was killed as “baseless”.
One Turkish official said authorities believe Mr Khashoggi was killed at the Saudi consulate, while another said it was a “high possibility”.
Mr Khashoggi disappeared on Tuesday.
