Secrecy, the theme of the joint competition, is at the heart of the sad Khashoggi affair.
Secrecy around his presumed death, secrecy around the location of his presumed body, secrecy of the circumstances of his death, except that it would have taken place in the embassy. And finally, secrecy on the part of politicians, notably the Saudi Arabian government.
Here is a very brief summary.
