French police have arrested a Saudi national suspected of involvement in the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, as Saudi officials said they believed it was a case of mistaken identity.The man was detained by border police on the basis of an arrest warrant issued by Turkey as he was about to board a flight to Riyadh from Paris’s Charles de Gaulle airport, judicial and airport sources told the AFP news agency, asking not to be named.Investigators on Tuesday were seeking to confirm that the man carrying a passport in the name of Khalid Alotaibi was indeed the suspect by the same name sought by Turkey and sanctioned by the US over the gruesome killing of Khashoggi that unleashed a wave of global anger.
