The two people arrested for the spectacular theft at the famous Louvre museum chose not to answer investigators' questions.
They exercised their "right to remain silent." They have been held in the offices of the Paris special prosecutor's service since the day they were arrested by French authorities.
Foreign media write that the two arrested are people known to French authorities. They have committed a series of thefts involving property damage, insults and bodily harm, but without any connection to organized crime networks.
The investigation relied on a wealth of forensic evidence collected at the scene of the robbery, a scene that has become world-famous and has been widely photographed in recent days. The identification of the first suspect, a 39-year-old with dual Franco-Algerian citizenship, was based on hair found inside a motorcycle helmet abandoned by the perpetrators during their escape.
The second person arrested, a Frenchman of Malian origin, was identified through DNA from the yellow vest he was wearing when he used a lifting machine to reach the gallery's facades and enter the interior.
The arrests were accelerated when authorities discovered that one of the suspects was about to board a flight to Algeria from Roissy airport. Despite extensive searches, two members of the group who were waiting outside the museum on scooters with their engines running are still being sought.
