The Louvre Museum's director resigned Tuesday, ending months of questions in France's cultural world over why no top official had stepped down after the October crown jewels theft.
Two new suspects have been handed preliminary charges in Louvre jewels heist case, the Paris prosecutor said.
Five more suspects have been arrested in connection to the Oct. 19 jewel heist at the Louvre museum in Paris, according to Paris Prosecutor Laure Beccuau.
The Paris public prosecutor said investigators are making "major progress" in solving the brazen Oct. 19 Louvre heist and that two suspects in custody will be charged with "organized robbery."
As a deadline fast approaches to either charge to release two suspects, a French lawmaker ripped security at the Louvre.
Paris Prosecutor Laure Beccuau said the information made public about the arrests in the Louvre case should not have been disclosed.
