US reality -TV star Kim Kardashian testifies to Parisian robbery | Crime messages

Reality -TV star and Business Mogul Kim Kardashian testified in front of a French courtroom that her experience is robbed in a Parisian hotel with a gun held.

Kardashian took the witness stand on Tuesday and confronted the suspects who were accused of capturing them and closed their mouths on October 3, 2016 while they stole more than 6 million dollars in jewelry.

The case concerns a group of about a dozen suspects who are known in French media as “Les Papys Braqueurs”: the Grandpa robbers. The group, many in the 1960s and 70s, are part of a crime ring, according to the prosecutors. One has died since the robbery, while the indictment against another was released on the basis of health concerns.

But Kardashian told the terror that she felt when members of the group broke into her hotel room after one night in Paris Fashion Week.

“We went the next morning, so I only grabbed,” said Kardashian. “It was about three in the morning. I heard the stairs up when I was in bed.”

She explained that she thought it was her older sister Kourtney Kardashian who returned to the hotel room. Instead, it was a group of armed men who were disguised as police officers and wore Balaclavas.

One of the men waved her with a weapon and asked her to give her engagement ring of $ 4 million, a gift from her husband Kanye West, a rapper who is now known as a YE.

“Then I heard one of the gentlemen with violent” ring! Ring! “In English with an accent and shows,” she said.

At some point she said the robbers threw her on the hotel bed. At that time she was wearing a bathrobe.

“I was sure that he would rape me,” said Kardashian. “I absolutely thought I would die.”

Her spirit flashed the idea that her sister came home to find her body, she added. “I thought of my sister, thought she would go down and see me remembered forever.”

But the robbers kept them with zipper and adhesive tape. They told her to be safe as long as she stayed calm.

“I have babies,” remembered Kardashian, a mother of four children. “I have to make it home. You can take everything. I just have to make it home.”

After all, she was locked up in the hotel room marble room while the robbers fled. During her certificate, she explained that the suspects would not have hit her during the attack.

“I was grabbed and pulled into the other room and thrown onto the floor, but was not hit, no,” she said.

Finally Kardashian said that she could use the sink to loosen the restrictions on her hands. She limp down the stairs, where she met with her stylist Simone Harouche, who had locked up in a bathroom on a floor at the bottom to call for help during the attack.

“She was next to herself. I've never seen her that way,” said Harouche about Kardashian. “She just shouted and kept saying: 'We have to get out of here. We need help. What will we do when you come back?'”

The attack caused the entertainment industry to take on new procedures in relation to security and social media contributions, including the delayed publication of certain images that could help robbers to identify goals and locations.

However, some critics accuse Kardashian for their luxurious lifestyle and their lack of security. The controversial fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld was quoted by the Reuters news agency, for example, to ask Kardashian's habit of publishing photos of herself on social media.

“You cannot show your assets and then be surprised that some people want to share it with them,” said the deceased designer.

This type of comment has triggered its own counter -reaction, some of them denounced them as a victim name. Nevertheless, judge David de Pas in Paris asked the parties involved whether they had not made themselves targets.

“Just because a woman wears jewelry does she not make it a goal,” said Harouche. “It's like saying that a woman wears a short skirt she deserves to be raped.”

Kardashian added that she had a bodyguard in a separate hotel. “We assumed that it was certain when we were in a hotel,” she said.

She added that she now holds five or six guards around her. She also accused the Paris attack of arranging a imitation of imitators in her house in Los Angeles.

“I started going out this phobia,” said Kardashian. “This experience has really changed everything for us.”

The appearance on Tuesday will probably be the only time that Kardashian says in criminal proceedings, which includes 10 defendants: nine men and a woman.

Five of the men look at an armed robbery and kidnapping fees that could lead to lifelong detention. Others must be exposed to less accusations for accomplices or unauthorized firearms.

The public prosecutor says that the ring loader in the group was a 69-year-old man named Aomar Ait Ait Khedache, who called “Omar the Old”. He wrote an apology letter that was read out in court.

“I appreciate the letter. I give you,” replied Kardashian and looked at Khedache. “But it doesn't change the feelings and trauma and the fact that my life has been changed forever, but I guess the letter, thank you.”
