In a sensational conclusion to the trial surrounding the robbery of Kim Kardashian, eight suspects have been found guilty for their participation in the 2016 armed heist that took place during Paris Fashion Week. The court sentenced four main culprits to prison terms of up to eight years, albeit with most of these sentences suspended, allowing for a potential early release.

Among the guilty are Aomar Ait Khedache, 69, and Yunice Abbas, 71, whose DNA evidence was crucial in linking them to the crime scene at the Hotel de Pourtales, where Kardashian was staying. Both men have admitted their roles in the robbery, which saw the reality TV star held at gunpoint while her jewelry worth approximately $10 million was stolen, including a diamond engagement ring.

In court, Kardashian shared, "The crime was the most terrifying experience of my life, leaving a lasting impact on me and my family." She expressed a desire for accountability, personal growth, and healing in her statement following the verdicts.

The case, involving nine men and one woman accused of the armed burglary, underscores the chaotic nature of the crime and the complex judicial repercussions. The sentences for Khedache and Abbas were both defined by significant suspended portions, handing a severe yet lenient ruling. Alongside them, Marc-Alexandre Boyer, 35, received an identical sentence, adding to the orchestrated nature of the heist, which shocked the glamorous world of fashion and celebrity.
