A Saudi court has issued a final ruling in the case of Saudi citizen Jamal Khashoggi, sentencing eight people to between seven and 20 years in prison.

Five people were handed 20-year prison sentences, one person was sentenced to 10 years and two people were handed seven-year sentences.

The verdicts are “final and enforceable," the public prosecution's spokesman said Monday.

The rulings mean Khashoggi's murder case has been closed both publicly and privately.
