During her emotional testimony on May 13, 2025, at the Palais de Justice in Paris, Kim Kardashian recounted the harrowing experience of being robbed at gunpoint in her hotel room in October 2016. She described being bound, gagged, and fearing for her life as masked men stole approximately $10 million worth of jewelry.
In a poignant moment during the trial, a letter of apology from defendant Aomar Ait Khedache, the alleged ringleader, was read aloud. Kardashian, visibly moved, responded by saying, “I forgive you,” emphasizing her belief in rehabilitation and second chances.
The trial, involving ten defendants dubbed the “grandpa robbers” due to their ages, is expected to conclude on May 23.
