A group of elderly men known as the 'grandpa robbers' are on trial for robbing Kim Kardashian at gunpoint during Paris Fashion Week in 2016. Accusations include stealing jewelry valued at millions, including a $4 million engagement ring. The incident was marked as one of France's largest individual robberies in two decades. Kardashian has described her terrifying experience during the heist, voicing her fears of death. One suspect, Yunice Abbas, admitted participation and expressed regret, stating they targeted Kardashian's wealth rather than her celebrity.
In 2020, Kardashian told US talk show host David Letterman about the heist in an interview, fighting back tears as she recalled her fears of being raped that night.
Yunice Abbas, 71, who is among the 10 suspects standing trial, has told French media that he and others who took part in the robbery did not know who Kardashian was.
