Louvre jewel heist suspect denied release, held until trial

The Paris Court of Appeal refused on Wednesday, 21 October, to release Rachid H., 40, a suspect in the 2025 jewel theft at the Louvre museum in Paris. He stays in pre-trial detention, meaning held until trial. Investigators allege he gave robbers keys to a car park in Aubervilliers; he says he knew nothing about the robbery.
