According to a source of the publication, the criminals seized objects of little value.
“The loot is minimal, even insignificant. Paco Rabanne may have been this ambassador of luxury that everyone knows, he lived in a very refined interior. In short, there was nothing to steal. Might as well warn those who intend to return. He had no money at home, and no valuables either”, can we read in the daily.
If the gendarmerie initially refused to confirm the assertion, it finally did so with AFP.
“The thieves thought there was a lot of valuables in there. It is not a glorious act. Whether it’s Paco Rabanne or anyone else, it’s very shocking to steal from someone who has just died,” said the mayor of Ploudalmézeau-Portsall, Marguerite Lamour.
