French officials admitted Wednesday that they got the wrong man, a day after arresting a Saudi national suspected of participating in the brutal murder of Saudi dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.
French authorities announced Wednesday that a man arrested at Paris-Charles De Gaulle Airport for allegedly being linked to the 2018 killing of Saudi journalist.
French media reported that the mix-up was related to the fact that the detained man had an identical name to one man sought in the killing and dismemberment of the Saudi journalist.
