A key defendant in the trial of a group accused of robbing Kim Kardashian at gunpoint in Paris back in 2016 has said he regrets the trauma he caused her.

The reality star was held up at gunpoint in a Paris apartment in 2016, which she has said has left her “scared to be alone”.

On the night of the robbery in October 2016, police say the criminals, posing as policemen, entered through two large, unmarked red doors on Rue Tronchet and held the concierge at gunpoint to gain access to the apartment where Kardashian was staying.
