It’s the drawn-out story where information has trickled through so slowly, you click on a  media report only for it to tell you Kim Kardashian-West’s million dollar engagement ring has potentially been melted down and re-sold in Belgium. But perhaps one of the most interesting angles so far comes from TMZ who have obtained 36 images of the crime scene (a la the luxury French hotel) in which Kardashian-West was gagged, tied and robbed in October 2016.

Disturbing images show the actual tape she was tied up with, the hotel bed in which she was asleep in before the robbers burst into her room and you can even see the pathway to the bathroom where she was made to wait cowering and pleading for her life.

The rest of the photos show suspects who reportedly met up at the same cafe to discuss the crime using code words. 17 people were arrested in total and a handful have been charged so far.
