Saudi Intelligence Member Confirms Bin Salman’s Involvement in Khashoggi’s Killing

A Saudi intelligence agent, who was able to leave the Saudi Kingdom to Ireland, revealed new information in the case of the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi at his country’s embassy in Istanbul. The most important of which is a Jordanian intelligence role in the operation, and Mohammed bin Salman behind it.

The Turkish newspaper Al-Sabah revealed the information provided by this source to the Turkish Embassy in Ireland, after arriving in Dublin via a third country in which he confirmed that the issuance of the order to kill Khashoggi is the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

A Saudi criminal, Saleh Al-Nashaa, arrived in Istanbul a week before killing Khashoggi, using a forged Jordanian passport, the Saudi source said.

This indicates that the murder was premeditated. He pointed out that Al-Nashaa, was equipped with all the necessary supplies for the murder, inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.

Khashoggi was given 100 milligrams of Ketamine, followed by 5 milligrams of Midazolam, and 200 milligrams of Propofol for anesthesia and fainting. He pointed out that Khashoggi, despite giving these doses, he resisted.

The newspaper said that the statements of the negotiating team during their trials in Saudi Arabia, aimed at concealing the role of the Saudi crown prince, and the deputy chief of intelligence Ahmed al-Asiri in the crime. Dialogues between Al-Tabiqi and Mutreb about the elimination of Khashoggi’s body an hour before the murder refute those false reports that attempt to exonerate Salman and al-Asiri from the crime.
