‘Tell Your Boss’: Recording Is Seen to Link Saudi Crown Prince More Strongly to Khashoggi Killing
Rappler on TwitterThe CIA has concluded that Saudi Crown Prince ordered the assassination of Jamal Khashoggi month, contradicting the Saudi government's claims that he was not involved.
The CIA's assessment, in which officials have said they have high confidence, is the most definitive to date linking MbS to the operation and complicates the Trump administration's efforts to preserve its relationship with a close ally.
In reaching its conclusions, the CIA examined multiple sources of intelligence, including a phone call that the prince's brother Khalid bin Salman, the Saudi ambassador to the United States, had with JK.
Among the intelligence assembled by the CIA is an audio recording from a listening device that the Turks placed inside the Saudi consulate, according to the people familiar with the matter. The Turks gave the CIA a copy of that audio, and the agency's director, Gina Haspel, has listened to it.
