PARIS (AP) — A Paris court on Friday found the ringleader and seven other people guilty in the robbery of Kim Kardashian in 2016.
The court acquitted two of the 10 defendants. The sentences being read out by the court president ranged from prison terms to fines.
Aomar Aït Khedache, 69, the ringleader, got the stiffest sentence, eight years imprisonment but five of those are suspended. Three others who were accused on the most serious charges got seven years, five of them suspended.
With time already served in pretrial detention, none of those found guilty will go to prison.
Khedache arrived at court walking with a stick, his face hidden from cameras. His DNA, found on the bands used to bind Kardashian, was a key breakthrough that helped crack open the case.
