Investigators focused on the property after new intelligence showed that one of the Saudi agents involved in Khashoggi’s murder had called the property owner a day before the killing, a Turkish official briefed on the investigation said Sunday. It remains to be seen whether the new information will help in Turkey’s search for Khashoggi’s remains, which could provide critical information about how he was killed. Turkish officials have detailed what they say is evidence of Saudi planning – including the scouting of locations where Khashoggi’s body could be dumped – as well as extensive attempts by Saudi agents to cover up the crime. Turkish officials have said they strongly suspect that no such person exists. As Khashoggi’s children have issued emotional appeals for the return of their father’s body, Turkish officials have accused Saudi Arabia of withholding information that could aid in the search.
