Two more charged over Louvre jewellery heist

Two more charged over Louvre jewellery heist

Two more people have been charged over a theft at the Louvre Museum last month, the Paris prosecutor's office said.

A 38-year-old woman has been charged with complicity in organised theft and criminal conspiracy with a view to committing a crime. Separately, a man, aged 37, was charged with theft and criminal conspiracy. Both denied any involvement.

Two men who had previously been arrested were already charged with theft and criminal conspiracy after officials said they had "partially recognised" their involvement in the heist.

Jewels worth USD$102m were taken from the world's most-visited museum on 19 October.

Four men carried out the lightning-quick daylight theft.

Two of the alleged thieves - who had been arrested earlier - later admitted their involvement.
