A pro-government Turkish daily on Wednesday published preliminary evidence from investigators it said identified a 15-member Saudi intelligence team involved in the unexplained disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
A bipartisan group of senators are triggering an investigation into the disappearance of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi - who went missing after entering the Saudi consulate in Turkey last week.
Cengiz, who told CNN that she does not feel comfortable enough to give an on-camera interview, said in written answers to questions from CNN's Christiane Amanpour that Khashoggi "may have been kidnapped, abducted, or some harm may have come to him".
Without going into detail, the president also said he has talked with the highest levels of the Saudi government about the missing contributor. "We are demanding everything". "Jamal Khashoggi is a Virginia resident, so his disappearance is personal to me".
Trump on Tuesday said he was "very concerned about it". He moved to the U.S. more than a year ago, where he continued to comment on his country both in print and on television.
The letter demands that the White House "determine whether a foreign person is responsible for the extrajudicial killing, torture or gross violation of internationally recognized human rights".
It is claimed that one of the men was a forensics expert, while others were part of the military or had close links to Saudi Arabia's ruling inner-circle. "I miss my country very much".
Suspicions are mounting that Saudi's crown prince ordered the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Turkey.
Signs of such a challenge began to emerge Monday night when Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called on the Saudis to "support a thorough investigation of Mr. Khashoggi's disappearance and to be transparent about the results of that investigation". "We will continue to monitor this situation and provide updates as available". Both hotels declined to comment.

It was Khashoggi's second visit to finalise his divorce, after being told the previous Friday that his papers were not in order. Erdogan, who said he's personally following the case, added that Turkey had no documents or evidence regarding the case.
The Spectator reported claims that Mr Khashoggi had been offered a role as an adviser if he returned to Saudi Arabia but had declined because of "moral and religious" principles.
Khashoggi's fiancee Hatice Cengiz wrote in an opinion piece for The Washington Post that she was "confident in the abilities of Turkish government officials".
The Washington Post reported Wednesday evening that us intelligence intercepts outlined a Saudi plan to detain Khashoggi.
But State Department deputy spokesman Robert Palladino told reporters they had no such tip.
The newspaper, where Mr Khashoggi wrote columns critical of the Saudi government, said USA intelligence had intercepted communications showing Saudi officials were trying to lure the journalist back to his homeland so they could arrest him.
Khashoggi is a resident of the United States and has been living in Washington, D.C. The former editor-in-chief of a Saudi newspaper and then an advisor to Saudi government officials, in the previous year Khashoggi had written columns critical of the Saudi goverment in the Post. Saudi Arabia denies knowing anything about his fate, saying that he left the building. "Everything points to them". "But I don't want to rush to judgment", Corker said on Tuesday.
When I asked him why he chose to live in the United States, he said America was the world's most powerful country, where one could feel the political pulse of the planet. Twelve of them arrived early on the Tuesday, based on photos captured at passport control which it published.
