Paris court sentences Kardashian robbers to up to three years jail

PARIS: A Paris court on Friday handed jail sentences of up to three years to a gang of robbers who stole $10 million in jewellery from reality TV star Kim Kardashian in Paris in 2016, although none of the accused are set to return to prison.

Aomar Ait Khedache, 69, the ringleader, was handed the heaviest sentence of three years in prison plus five years suspended, but due to time served in jail will not return to detention, like all the others convicted.

Two other suspects accused of handing information about the American superstar´s whereabouts were acquitted and all the sentences were substantially lower than the terms demanded by the prosecution.
