A sombre thought for the family of the missing

I refer to your pertinent editorial Truth and justice must prevail in Saudi case (October 20): you have rightly suggested that the first priority now must be to locate Mr Khashoggi’s body and hold those responsible to account. At least then the grieving process can begin for his family.

Mr Khashoggi’s family and friends will find some closure and finally be able to pray for his departed soul. The return of his body would be humane and fair. Other newspapers around the world have made the same request and echoed your conscience-arousing editorial.
