Britain will prevent all suspects in the death of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi from entering the country, Prime Minister Theresa May said, adding she would speak to Saudi Arabia's King Salman later on Wednesday.

"There does remain an urgent need to establish exactly what has happened in relation to this ... I myself expect to speak to King Salman later today," May told parliament.

"The Home Secretary is taking action against all suspects to prevent them from entering the UK, and if these individuals currently have visas, those visas will be revoked today."
