A man who stole millions of dollars worth of jewellery from Kim Kardashian has sensationally pinned the blame on the star.
In 2016, Yunis Abbas was one of the people behind the Paris hotel robbery which saw reality TV star Kim, 41, robbed of around $10 million in jewellery, including a $4 million 20-carat engagement ring given to her by her now ex-hubby Kanye West.
Keeping Up With The Kardashian s star Kim was bound, gagged and held at gunpoint during the scary ordeal while a gang of masked men raided her jewellery boxes and made away with the huge haul of gems and two mobile phones.
They gained entry to her quarters at the No Name Hotel after threatening the building concierge, Abdulrahman, at knifepoint. And now Yunis, who spent close to two year behind bar for his role in the heist as pinned the blame on the star.
Ht told VICE News : "Since she was throwing money away, I was there to collect it, and that was that. Guilty? No, I don’t care."
He continued to say celebs who flaunt their wealth online should "be a little less showy towards people who can't afford it".
Yunis was one of 12 people to be charged over the incident and said the gang used the Internet to track down the star. He revealed how he stayed downstairs while the gang raided the star's room.
"Madame Kardashian’s secretary called for help. But she called 911 in the United States, which scared us, which made them lose a lot of time. And when we got out, there was a bunch of police outside who didn’t know anything about the robbery," he added.
Ever since the incident, SKIMS founder Kim has described how she has been left feeling fearful and constantly anxious.
Speaking about the incident in a past episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim said she feared "they're going to shoot me in the back."
"There's no way out. It makes me so upset to think about it," she told her sisters.
Last year, it was claimed that alleged ringleader Aomar Ait Khedache, known as 'Old Omar', penned Kim an apology from his prison cell, saying he regrets his actions.
