Reality star Kim Kardashian has returned to Paris to testify in the highly publicized “Kim Kardashian robbery” case, nearly nine years after she was bound, gagged, and robbed at gunpoint during Paris Fashion Week.
Kardashian, 43, arrived under tight security at the Palais de Justice on Tuesday to face the suspects accused of stealing more than $10 million in jewels from her hotel suite in 2016.
The incident, which made global headlines, is now back in the spotlight as French courts try several men linked to the heist.
“I truly feared for my life,” Kardashian said during her testimony, according to AP News. “I thought they were going to shoot me, and no one would find out until it was too late.”
Night of Kim Kardashian Robbery
The robbery occurred during Paris Fashion Week on October 3, 2016. Kardashian was alone in her private apartment at the Hôtel de Pourtalès when masked men disguised as police officers burst in.
They tied her up, locked her in a bathroom, and stole millions in jewelry, including her $4 million engagement ring from then-husband Kanye West.
