Kim Kardashian's
bodyguard who was looking after her when she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris in
2016 is being sued.
Pascal
Duvier and the company he was employed by,
Protect Security, have been hit with a $6,116,067 lawsuit by the reality
star's insurance company, AIG.
The lawsuit states that the
Parisian hotel where Kardashian was staying faced a number of security red
flags, including a broken lock on the front gate to the hotel's courtyard, a
malfunctioning exterior intercom, and a concierge who did not have "any
security training and/or background."
The lawsuit further alleges
that Pascal and by extension his security firm "negligently,
carelessly, and/or recklessly performed their protection, security, monitoring,
inspection, and/or surveying of" Kardashian West and the Hotel by not
flagging and addressing these security concerns.
"As a result of
Defendants' failure to address and correct the various security breaches in the
Hotel and leaving [Kardashian] in her hotel room alone… the masked men were
able to enter the Hotel and rob [Kardashian] of her personal property,"
the documents state.
At that time of the robber
attack, Kardashian was staying with sister Kourtney Kardashian and
her entourage at the "No Address Hotel" for Paris
Fashion Week when two men, one in a ski mask, the other
wearing ski goggles ambushed her in her room and demanded jewelry at gunpoint.
They reportedly tied her up with plastic cables, gagged her and left her in the
bathtub before escaping.
It was also reported that
Duvier who usually stay with Kardashian had gone to a nearby nightclub with
Kim’s sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.
According to the report,
eleven people have so far been arrested in connection with the robbery
attack.
