PARIS — Four suspects in the Louvre heist have been handed preliminary charges and incarcerated, including three believed to be members of the team who forced its way into the museum, leaving with $102 million worth crown jewels.
Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau noted the apparent «closeness» of the suspects. Two of them were convicted in 2015 in the same theft case and all are based in Paris’ northern suburbs.
Authorities said the jewelry has not been recovered and the fourth member of the so-called «commando» is still at large. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said investigators are also looking for whoever might have ordered the crime.
Neither names nor extensive biographical details have been made public, in line with French law that provides that information about investigations is meant to be secret, in part to avoid compromising police work.
