French police release Saudi man wrongly held over connection to Jamal Khashoggi death

French police have released the man arrested on Tuesday at a Paris
airport who was believed to have been wanted in connection with the
killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.

It is understood the Saudi national who was detained had the same name
as another man wanted over what the UN says was the "extrajudicial
killing" of Jamal Khashoggi "by Saudi Arabia" three years ago.

Ross Cullen has more from Paris.
