According to the official Saudi Press Agency, the issue has been acknowledged by bin Mohammed Al-Aiban the president of Saudi Arabia's Human Rights Commission.

He said among the recommendations (warnings), there is also a call for an impartial and transparent investigation into slaying Jamal Khashoggi, the Saudi dissident journalist. 

Al-Aiban has claimed they deem the warnings to be positive and important and the issues will be investigated in special committees and working groups.

Independent investigations into the case are underway in Turkey and Ankara says a death squad was sent to Istanbul to kill the journalist.

The 59-year-old Jamal Khashoggi, former editor of the Saudi newspaper Al Watan and The Washington Post columnist, entered the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on October second to collect paperwork for his forthcoming marriage, but never went back to his Turkish fiancée who was awaiting him in front of the consulate.

Saudi Arabia officials at first claimed Khashoggi was killed in a 'fist fight', however Saudi Attorney General eventually admitted he was murdered on purpose.

The whereabouts of his body remains to be known, but Turkish investigators believe the journalist's dismembered body was dissolved in hydrofluoric acid in one of the rooms of the consulate general.
