Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al Jubeir said that Qatari media has launched and continues to organize a campaign against Saudi Arabia by exploiting the Khashoggi case, describing Doha’s attempts to politicize the case as “regrettable”.

The statement was made at a press conference in Riyadh, hours after Saudi Public Prosecutor requested death penalty for five key suspects involved in Jamal Khashoggi’s murder in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey on October 2.

The Kingdom is committed to holding those involved in the murder accountable through the judiciary, and investigations into journalist’s killing will continue until all questions are answered, Al Jubeir said.

Regarding Qatar’s role in inflaming the situation, Al Jubeir said “The Qatari media have launched an organized campaign against Saudi Arabia and are exploiting Khashoggi’s case”.
