United Kingdom, April 27 -- A key suspect in Kim Kardashian's Paris robbery ordeal has died.

Marceau Baum-Gertner was set to face trial on Monday (28.04.25) over his alleged involvement with the gang that held the 44-year-old reality star at gunpoint in her hotel room in 2016, but it has now emerged that the 72 year old - who was said to have been responsible for finding buyers for Kim's stolen possessions, including her $4 million engagement ring from Kanye West - passed away suddenly last month, MailOnline reports.

The suspect, who was nicknamed Nez Rape, passed away on 6 March but legal authorities had still named him in an operational note on 14 March as the fourth key defendant due to appear for trial at the Paris Assizes next week...
