Candlelight vigil marks first anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi’s murder in US

Dozens of Journalists and activists gathered in front of the Saudi Arabian embassy in Washington DC to hold a candlelight vigil in the memory of the first anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi's murder on Wednesday.

The vigil, organised by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), was meant to put a spotlight on the Saudi journalist's alleged murder, one year after he was last seen walking into the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.

Saudi author Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for the Washington Post, was allegedly assassinated and dismembered in the Saudi embassy in Istanbul in October 2018.
