REPORTS: Khashoggi’s son has left Saudi Arabia

The Reuters news agency is reporting that Salah, one of the sons of the slain Khashoggi, has left Saudi Arabia after reportedly being under a travel ban since his father began writing critically about Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) in columns for The Washington Post.

Sarah Leah Whitson, the executive director for the Middle East and North Africa Division at Human Rights Watch tweeted: “Good news for a change: confirming that #JamalKhashoggi son Salah and his family are finally out of Riyadh and on their way to US, travel ban lifted. Too bad Salah had to endure that cruel and bizarre greeting with MBS first.”
