[Asia Economy Reporter Nahana] A thief broke into the home of a Saudi Arabian princess residing in a wealthy neighborhood in Paris, France, and luxury goods worth 800 million won disappeared.

According to a report by the daily Le Parisien on the 6th (local time), the Saudi princess lost consciousness and collapsed upon returning to her residence near the Champs-?lys?es after spending her summer vacation in the south of France for three months. She was immediately taken to the hospital.

The Saudi princess, deeply shocked by the burglary, is reportedly unable to cooperate with the police investigation.

Stolen items included 35 Herm?s bags, each valued between 10,000 and 35,000 euros (approximately 13 million to 46 million won), as well as luxury watches, jewelry, and furs.

The police investigation found no signs of forced entry. The police are continuing to analyze closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage and conduct inquiries.

The police confirmed that a man who stayed with the Saudi princess in her home last August was present, and they are focusing on the fact that a copied apartment key has gone missing.

According to the police, the man reportedly proposed several times to the Saudi princess to sell luxury goods on eBay but was rejected, Le Parisien added.
