Process by act in Paris: Raid on Kim Kardashian: Charges demands long punishments

In the trial of the robbery on US star Kim Kardashian 2016 in Paris, the public prosecutor has asked for long prison terms for most of the ten defendants. Four of the men are said to be in custody for ten years, one eight years and two more seven years, as the CNEWS broadcaster reported from the courtroom. For the only accused woman, the indictment pleaded for six years in prison, another man should receive four years in prison and another fine.

Although only two had a confession, she all thought the accused guilty of being involved in the carefully planned attack on the reality TV star, said the prosecutor. Since the end of April, nine men and a woman in Paris have been in court because of the raid. The accused of around 60 years described the French press as “grandpa gangsters”. The judgments are expected this Friday.

Masked and armed perpetrators

Kardashian was attacked on the night of October 3, 2016 in a luxury district in the chic 8th Parisian district. Five predators suddenly appeared in front of the residence as police officers at around 2:30 a.m. Two of them brought the gatekeeper into their violence and stormed masked and with a gun held in Kardashian’s room.

There they threatened them with their guns, tied up and gagged them with adhesive tape on the arms and legs and captured jewelry worth around nine million euros, including the star’s engagement ring with an 18.88-carat diamond. The multi -million dollar prey was not found. The investigators assume that the criminals have turned them into money in Antwerp.

“I thought I would die”

Kardashian was able to loosen her bonds and raise the alarm. The media star was physically unharmed, but was in shock. Kardashian said in Paris in court that she was afraid that the perpetrators would rape or shoot her. “I was absolutely certain, I thought I would die,” she said.
