You can't "ensure they aren't working for an enemy nation" if it's the wrong person. Your presuming it was an accident they got the wrong person. I'm presuming it wasn't.

Both are presumptions, but based on the the rest of their actions it seems like my presumption is more likely.

So you think they took the public relations hit of arresting the journalist but intentionally arrested some random person? Why?
