Overview
- The Bobigny court, which ruled Friday, gave Abdoulaye N., known online as “Doudou Cross Bitume,” a two‑month prison term for breaking a mirror and a cell lock at the Aulnay-sous-Bois police station in 2019.
- He was tried in absentia after choosing not to be brought from pretrial detention, and his lawyer cited the media buzz linked to his status as a Louvre theft suspect.
- The case stems from a 2019 custody tied to a theft inquiry that later ended in a dismissal for the theft itself, while the damage charges proceeded to judgment.
- This sentence marks his 16th conviction, with prior entries that include aggravated theft and other offenses leading to earlier prison time.
- In the Louvre investigation, investigators report his DNA on a broken display, he is formally under investigation for organized theft and criminal conspiracy, and prosecutors note the suspects do not fit top-tier crime profiles; the October 19, 2025 raid took eight Crown jewels worth about €88 million and the jewels remain missing.
