Le prix du sang: les enfants de Jamal Khashoggi compensés par le régime

Les deux filles et les deux fils du journaliste assassiné se sont bien peu exprimés publiquement après la mort horrible de leur père. Les compensations versées par le régime saoudien expliquerait ce silence. Après avoir offert des allocations mensuelles et des résidences en Arabie saoudite, les dirigeants s'apprêteraient à verser des millions supplémentaires pour compenser la famille et s'assurer de leur discrétion. Quelqu'un se sent coupable?

 "The monthly schedule of payments and prospect of eventual multimillion-dollar settlements would appear to give the Khashoggis a long-term financial incentive to remain quiet even as human rights organizations and critics of Saudi Arabia continue to demand accountability from the kingdom.

Washington Post publisher Fred Ryan said in an op-ed Monday, six months after Jamal Khashoggi’s death, that the Saudis “have adopted a strategy of evasion” that has “scapegoated expendable officials, seeking to quell international furor by staging a sham trial.”

Khashoggi’s second son, Abdullah, declined to comment when reached Monday. William Taylor, a Washington lawyer who has represented the family, also refused to discuss any compensation the family has received."
