Australian Prime Minister Mosuisse (Scott Morrison) has denounced the murder case against Saudi journalist Shaq (Jamal Khashoggi) at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, the Australian news agency reported.
On Saturday, Australia`s government announced that it was "no longer fit" to attend next week`s "Future Investment Plan" conference in Arab, Saudi Arabia, at (Future Investment Initiative forum).
"We publicly condemn the killing of Hashauji. We hope that Saudi government will cooperate fully with the Turkish authorities and fully investigate the matter. " "Australia will stand together with like-minded countries to condemn the death and the killing, and we look forward to full cooperation," Mr Mosuisse told reporters today.
"the arrested will go through proper procedures," he said. We hope that through this process, the truth can be found and those responsible will be held accountable. "
Saudi Arab officials said in a statement earlier that al-Khashaoji died after a brawl at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2.
Australian diplomatic minister Payne (Marise Payne) said she had conveyed Australian government`s concerns about the incident to the Saudi ambassador to Australia. "in the light of this new news, we are sure that the official Australian representative is no longer fit to attend the upcoming conference on future investment plans in (Riyadh), Riyadh," Payne said.
