Comment: Did the Saudis sent the video by email?
Yasin Aktay: Before entering the Saudi consulate, Khashoggi told his fiancé Miss Hatice to call myself and Turan Kislakci if something happened to him.
By the way, it seems that at the beginning, Khashoggi’s abduction or murder was presented as a success of the intelligence service in the Saudi media. Of course, there was a great confusion there too. When it was found out that he was missing, the news were reporting that he was arrested by Interpol.
First of all, there was no search warrant for him, and secondly, there was nothing successful about this whether it be intelligence-wise or operational.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Sunday summoned Saudi Arabian Ambassador Waleed A. M. Elkhereiji for the second time after journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s disappearance and demanded permission to search the consulate building in Istanbul, diplomatic sources said Monday.

There's no way the Turks have any idea about the existence of any videotape, and the idea that the Erdogan regime would concern itself about a foreign or a Turkish journalist is ludicrous.
