Three members of a Saudi found guilty of killing are living in luxury villas in theÌýÌý³¦²¹±è¾±³Ù²¹±ô, The Guardian reported on Thursday.

The convicted killers are living and working in seven-star accommodation, at a government-run security compound in Riyadh,Ìýa source with links to seniorÌý members told the British daily.

The men were convicted of murdering and dismembering KhashoggiÌýat the SaudiÌýconsulate in IstanbulÌýin October 2018.

They includeÌýSalah Al-Tubaigy, the forensic scientist who dismembered Khashoggi;ÌýMustafa Al-Madani, a Khashoggi body double used to create the illusion that the journalist left the consulate alive; andÌýMansour Abahussein, the man accused of leading the operation, The Guardian claimed.

The three men are frequently visited by family and use a gym and workspaces inside the compound,ÌýtheÌýsource who has spoken to two witnesses claiming to have seen the men, told The Guardian.

They also appeared to be relaxed and living normal lives on the occasions they were spotted, the sources said.

A declassified USÌýintelligence assessment released in February claimed Saudi's de facto ruler approved of the operation to capture or kill Khashoggi.

The Saudi government has denied any involvement from the crown prince and rejected the report's findings.

After an opaque trial in Saudi Arabia, five Saudis were sentenced to death and three sentenced to prison terms for Khashoggi's murder. However, the death sentences were laterÌýcommuted.
