Good
news! Kim Kardashian could get her 20-carat engagement ring back, with the help
of two of the several suspects who were arrested in connection with her Paris
robbery on Monday, January 9.
The
Keeping Up With the Kardashians star had her $4 million diamond bling stolen
during the heist in the French capital last year, but there is now hope it’ll
be retrieved.
Two
unidentified brothers in their 50s are accused of "disposing" of the
piece of jewelry and could help get it back, according to Paris police.
"They
are involved in the diamond trade and are thought to have handled the stolen
jewelry,” an insider revealed.
"Their
homes have been searched from top to bottom, and so has a jewelry shop in Paris
which is also linked to them. The jewelry has not yet been found, but these
brothers could lead us to it over the coming days.”
The
source added that the men are said to be frequent visitors to Antwerp — the
Belgian diamond capital — where unsourced items often change hands for
millions.
"It’s
a town where jewelry can be sold on with no questions asked," says the
source. "The men know the industry inside out, and may well know exactly
where the ring went."
According
to a source, 17 people have been arrested in total over the crime.
One
of those was reportedly Kardashian’s limo driver. According to Le Monde, the
chauffeur was the last person to drive the star before the October 3 incident,
where Kardashian, 36, was tied up and gagged by five armed assailants who took
an estimated $10 million worth of jewelry.
Police
are trying to determine whether the driver passed information to the thieves.
The
suspects will be held for up to 96 hours before being charged or released.
