French authorities have charged a 38-year-old woman in connection with a multi-million-euro theft at the Louvre Museum in Paris last month.
According to French media reports, the woman, who has not been publicly named, faces charges of complicity in organized theft and criminal conspiracy with a view to committing a crime.
A magistrate will determine whether she will be detained pending further investigation.
Police arrested the woman earlier this week alongside four other suspects.
Two male suspects arrested previously were already charged with theft and criminal conspiracy after officials said they had “partially recognized” their involvement in the heist.
The theft occurred on October 19, when jewels valued at approximately 88 million Euros were stolen from the world’s most-visited museum.
