A Paris court has convicted eight men involved in the 2016 robbery of Kim Kardashian, who was tied up and held at gunpoint for her jewelry during Paris Fashion Week. Although the court heard the case against ten defendants, two were acquitted. The convicted individuals included Aomar Aît Khedache, 69, who was sentenced to eight years—five of which are suspended—while the others received sentences ranging from three to seven years, most of which were also suspended, allowing them to avoid immediate imprisonment, according to Independent and BBC.

The chief judge, David De Pas, described the defendants' advanced ages—most are in their 60s and 70s—as a significant factor in the court's decision to impose lenient sentences. Khedache’s DNA was a key piece of evidence, found on the zip ties used to bind Kardashian. Prosecutors initially requested ten-year sentences for the men involved in the robbery, reflecting the serious nature of the crime, as reported by CBS News and Los Angeles Times.
