Kim Kardashian is not a heroine just by looks; it looks like she has many more attributes justifying her zooming rise to stardom.

She rose to the occasion when it was most required and extricated herself from a sticky situation.

The incident when she was required to display her smartness occurred in Paris on Tuesday.

The celebrity was tied up at gunpoint and locked up in a bathroom by unknown assailants who then went on a robbing spree and made off with millions of dollars’ worth of booty that she was carrying with her as informed by the police.

How it happened

Kim Kardashian who is a star in the reality TV segment in the US was staying in an ultra-rich locality in the upmarket and posh Madeleine District.

The robbery is stated to have taken place at around 2:30 AM (00:30 GMT) from a locality that is very close to the main department store in the chic district.

The occasion of her visit to Paris was the conduct of the annual Paris Fashion Week and was staying at a luxury residence in the French Capital when she was robbed.

The modus operandi of the robbers was quite old but they succeeded in their nefarious pursuit. The five culprits arrived on the scene posing as Police Officers in the early hours of Monday.

Incidentally, her bodyguard had been instructed by Kim to accompany her sister Kourtney who had gone to a nightclub in Paris.

The attackers were disguised as police officers and were dressed in the customary police jackets and masks. They entered the premises and overpowered the night guard.

After subduing the warden, two of the assailants crashed into Kardashian’s room while the other three kept a lookout for any surprise visitors. The 35 year old celebrity was tied up with some rope and she was huddled into the bathroom while the robbers searched for valuables to take away.

The robbers were lucky to chance upon quite a booty and got away with:

1. A jewelry case that had ornaments worth about $ 5.6 million, and
2. A ring of Ms Kardashian that was worth about $ 4.5 million.

The total that the five got away with is more than $ 10 million apart from two mobile phones of undisclosed worth.
After some time, when the coast seemed clear, Kardashian managed to struggle free and called her body guard who raised the alarm and called the police.

There was no CCTV footage though the police are trying DNA fingerprinting in their investigations.

Paris has been a city with suspect security measures ever since the Paris attacks. The tourist trade has also been affected due to the negative travel advisories.
