Tight security in Cannes ahead of movie gala
(MENAFN- Arab News) CANNES France: With France still on high alert after January's jihadist attacks in Paris and yet another audacious jewellery heist in recent days a huge but discreet security detail is planned for next week's Cannes film festival.
The festival on France's south coast has often been the target of major thefts and this year has proved no exception.
On Tuesday four men one wearing an old-man mask and armed with a pistol burst into the Cartier store on the famed Croisette strip and made off with over 17 million euros' ($19 million) worth of jewellery and watches.
The 70-odd luxury stores that line the strip load up on high-value items that they hope will adorn the festival glitterati making them prime targets for criminals.
