<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The memorial began just after 1.14pm — the time Mr Khashoggi walked into the consulate a year ago, to collect documents required for him to marry his Turkish fiancee, who was waiting for him outside. He never emerged.</p>
<p>During the ceremony, activists called for a comprehensive United Nations investigation into the murder and action to ensure the perpetrators of the killing do not go unpunished.</p>

<p>Mr Bezos, who is also the founder of Amazon, praised Mr Khashoggi’s fiancee, Hatice Cengiz, who paced a street outside the Saudi consulate for hours last year waiting for him to re-emerge.</p>
<p>“No one should ever have to endure what you did,” Mr Bezos said. “You need to know that you are in our hearts. We are here and you are not alone.”</p>
<p>Participants later unveiled a memorial for Mr Khashoggi, who had become a sharp critic of the Saudi kingdom.</p>

<p>Several questions linger a year since his killing, including the whereabouts of his body and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s possible culpability.</p>
<p>Saudi Arabia says it is trying 11 people for the killing, but few details have been released.</p>

<p>Prince Mohammed said in an interview this week that he took full responsibility for the killing but denied ordering it.</p>
