Nine men and a woman have been judged for their participation in the robbery by shameless armed hand, facing charges that include robbery and kidnapping. The gang was called “the grandparents’ thieves” by the French media because most were 60 years old at the time of the robbery.

In the emotional testimony of four and a half hours 10 days ago, he told the court of Paris that “absolutely” he believed that he was going to be “raped and killed” when one of the armed and masked thieves grabbed her and threw her towards him while laying into her bed with just a bathtub.

Yunis Abbas, 71, who had already apologized directly with Kardashian for contributing to the trauma with the one who said he lives daily, he told court: “Everything I have to say is apologize again; I feel it for what I could have done.”

The investigators only found DNA of two of the defendants, and in the Court on Friday, the other eight led to the witness position to reiterate their claims that they had nothing to do with the crime.

The Prosecutor’s Office has requested sentences of 10 years against the four men accused of participating directly in the robbery by armed hand: Khedache, Abbas, Didier Dubreucq, 70, and the youngest of the defendant, Marc-Alexandre Boyer, 35.

The prosecutor said in the Court that they were “experienced thieves who came up with a plan and were successful.”
