Trump says Saudi crown prince 'totally denied any knowledge' of Jamal Khashoggi's fate

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that Saudi Arabia's crown prince Mohammed bin Salman had personally denied to him any knowledge of what happened to journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who is presumed dead after last being seen entering the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.

Trump, in a pair of tweets, said he had spoken with the prince, who was with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Saudi Arabia, and that bin Salman "had told me that he has already started, and will rapidly expand, a full and complete investigation into this matter."

"Answers will be forthcoming shortly."
