Elderly Criminal, Age 72, Admitted to Arming and Robbing Kim Kardashian, Now Expresses Remorse over the Terrifying Heist in French Court; Author of the Boastful and Mocking Account of the Raid.

Kim Kardashian's Robber Speaks Out:

Yunice Abbas, 72, infamous career criminal, confessed to his role in the 2016 robbery of Kim Kardashian in Paris, while expressing regret for the crime. Abbas, who is facing trial alongside nine others, admitted his involvement as a lookout after his DNA was found at the scene.

Faced with millions worth of jewelry stolen and never recovered, Abbas was part of a gang that bound and gagged Kardashian, 44, in her rented Paris penthouse during Fashion Week. Abbas awaited trial, first in a remand cell and then on bail, during which time he wrote "I kidnapped Kim Kardashian," despite his health issues.

When asked questions about his remorse by Judge David Pas, Abbas responded, "I do have regrets. Before I didn't. But this time I do regret what I did. This case has opened my eyes."

The trial, ongoing in the Paris Assizes, began with eight suspects denying any wrongdoing, while one defendant, old friend Aomar Aït Khedache, 70, admitted his guilt.

During the trial proceedings, Abbas's book, labeled as "boastful and mocking" by prosecutors, was discussed. In the book, Abbas ridiculed Kardashian for trying to dial 911 during the attack and for sharing her jewelry on social media platforms. Abbas defended his actions, stating that celebrities like Kardashian "should be a little less showy toward people who can't afford it."

Abbas, no stranger to jail time, shared that he was adjusting to his long sentences, saying "The longer the sentences are, the more you get used to it." Known for his deceitful alibis, Abbas mentioned that he often lied to his wife, Farida Abbas, to protect her.

Stay tuned for Kim Kardashian's upcoming testimony, set to take place in mid-May, as the trial rolls on. [1] The current proceedings began recently, with the anticipated end date being May 23, 2025.
