Louvre Heist: The Work of 'Petty Criminals'
The recent jewelry heist at the Louvre was carried out by a local group of "petty criminals" rather than a professional gang, according to Paris's prosecutor Laure Beccuau.
The suspects charged so far do not appear to be linked to any high-level crime networks. Two suspects were charged on Saturday, bringing the total so far to four.
- Three men, all in their thirties and with hefty criminal records, stand accused of gang fraud and criminal association.
- A 38-year-old woman is charged with "complicity".
A reporter for AFP said the woman tearfully denied any involvement in the theft in a hearing with a judge.
According to legal sources, her case may be reassessed as a result of her declarations.
