What happened during the Kim Kardashian Paris robbery?

The gang are believed to have entered the plush apartment on Paris’ Rue Tronchet at around 2.30am on October 3, 2016.

Dressed as police, sources say the men were unwittingly allowed into the complex by a concierge.

After handcuffing the porter, they made their way up to Kim’s flat, where she was sleeping.

They broke in and then two of them held a gun at the reality TV star, before also tying her hands together and then locking her in a bathroom.

Chilling crime scene pictures revealed the aftermath of the robbery along with video of the alleged robbers.

In November, it was reported that Kim was being plagued with “nightmares and flashbacks” following the robbery and she also had to deal with her husband, Kane West having a breakdown.

Fortunately, the couple’s young children Saint and North are not believed to have been in the hotel room at the time.

She recently opened up about the robbery in the new series of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which was filmed in the aftermath.

She said: “They had the gun up to me and I knew they were just going to shoot me in the head.

“Then he duck-tapes my face.

Kim said she pleaded with her captors, saying: “Please I have a family. Let me live”.
