CNN has obtained exclusive law enforcement surveillance footage, part of the Turkish government's investigation, that appears to show the man leaving the consulate by the back door, wearing Khashoggi's clothes, a fake beard, and glasses.
The same man was seen in Khashoggi's clothing, according to the Turkish case, at the city's world-famous Blue Mosque just hours after the journalist was last seen alive entering the consulate on October 2.
Madani at the Blue Mosque in Istanbul captured on law enforcement surveillance footage, according to a Turkish official.
Saudi Arabia has presented a shifting narrative of what happened to Khashoggi.
After weeks of denying involvement in Khashoggi's disappearance, Saudi Arabia said that he was killed in the Istanbul consulate, saying his death was the result of a "fistfight."
A Saudi source close to the royal palace later told CNN that the Washington Post journalist died in a chokehold.
On Sunday, its foreign minister, Adel al-Jubeir, went further, describing Khashoggi's death on Fox News as a "murder" and a "tremendous mistake." »
