AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian spent nearly an hour being in the same place as her robbers on the night the traumatic burglary happened. A police source told Us Weekly that three of the five masked men stealing her jewelry were already inside the reality TV star's private residence at Hotel de Pourtales in Paris before two other men came and attacked her.
According to the source, the three men arrived at the building on bicycles at 2:18 A.M. "They clearly knew the security code of the main doors, and let themselves in without any problem at all," said the source. Fourteen minutes later, the other two thieves arrived on foot and entered the building through the same entrance.
The five men were caught on CCTV leaving the hotel at 3:07 A.M., 49 minutes after the first three men arrived. Some of them looked "very relaxed" as they walked away with Kim's jewelry, while the others fled the scene on bicycles.
"They acted like they had all the time in the world," the police insider said. "It is quite incredible that they managed to hang about for so long without anyone calling us."
It's been two weeks since the robbers raided Kim's apartment and took her jewelry that included the $4 million diamond ring from her husband Kanye West. However, police haven't publicly named anyone as a suspect.
There have been speculations about whether or not the burglars are professionals. A previous report said that one of the men intentionally fell off his bike and another man pretended to accidentally drop a necklace in attempt to trick cops into thinking they were amateurs.
Meanwhile, Kim has been spending her time away from the spotlight but has been very cooperative during the investigation. "She is very calm and very determined over a matter that was particularly violent," her Paris barrister, Jean Veil, said. "If she is summoned to France, she will come to France, but judges also have the possibility of moving [to the United States]."
