Turkey on Friday vowed that nothing will stay secret in the case of the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the kingdom’s consulate in Istanbul, adding it did not want relations with Riyadh to be damaged.

“From the start, the line of our President (Recep Tayyip Erdogan) has been clear. Nothing will remain secret in this case,” presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin told reporters in Ankara.

He added, “Saudi Arabia is for us an important country, a brotherly and friendly country. We have many partnerships and we would not want these to be damaged. Consequently, there is a great responsibility on the Saudi authorities to shed light on the case.”
