The report also claimed that some top Saudi officials have been identified with the murder, the number of people involved in the murder case still remained a puzzle.
According to an investigation, two of the voices reportedly heard in the recording were identified by CNN's source as Maher Abdulaziz Mutreb, an intelligence official who works for Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Salah Muhammad al-Tubaiqi, a forensic doctor from Saudi Arabia's interior ministry.
CNN, however, reported that there was no evidence in the transcript implicating the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman.
