Paris (HRNW) — Nearly 10 years after the high-profile Paris robbery case, a French court has awarded American celebrity Kim Kardashian just €1 in damages.
The incident took place on October 2, 2016, during Paris Fashion Week, when Kardashian was the victim of an armed robbery.
Following years of legal proceedings, the court awarded €1 in damages, making the compensation largely symbolic in nature.
