ISTANBUL—Turkish authorities have a second recording of a Saudi hit team murdering Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi that reportedly contradicts conclusions made by the official Saudi investigation and further implicates Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, according to the prominent Turkish newspaper columnist who broke the story of the first tape.

The 15-minute recording reportedly provides evidence the killing was premeditated, despite claims by Saudi investigators that Khashoggi was killed only after an effort was made to persuade him to return to the Kingdom voluntarily.

If shared with Western intelligence services as the first one has been, the second recording is likely to strengthen the CIA’s reported conclusion the Saudi crown prince, widely known by the initials MBS, gave the order to kill The Washington Post columnist.

Intercepts of the crown prince’s phone calls in the days before the killing and a call by a member of the 15-member hit team after the murder underlay the CIA conclusion, along with an assessment that the crown prince maintains close control of all major policy actions, the Post and The New York Times reported.
