The Washington Post on April 1 reported that Khashoggi’s children, including Salah, had received multimillion-dollar homes and were being paid thousands of dollars per month by authorities. Khashoggi was killed in October at the kingdom’s consulate in Istanbul. Saudi Arabia’s public prosecutor has charged 11 people over his murder.
