'They pushed me to the bed': Kim Kardashian recounts Paris robbery in leaked police statement.

Kim Kardashian West has described the moment a masked man pointed a gun at her and demanded her wedding ring in a leaked police statement of the Paris robbery.

The 36-year-old’s police statement, made hours after the 3 October heist, was obtained by French newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche and recently published.

In it, Kardashian West details how “European”-looking men tied her up and placed her in her bathtub of the hotel she was staying at before taking her jewellery and fleeing.

The reality star said she was working at a computer when she “heard noises” at the door just before 3am, and no one answered her calls.

She said she could see the two hooded men dressed in black, one with a ski mask and a jacket marked ‘Police’, before they reached her.

The mother-of-two said she initially denied knowing where her $5.3 million ($4 million) engagement ring was before the masked man threatened her with a gun.

"I answered him saying 'I don’t know', he takes out a weapon and I show him the ring," she said in the statement.

"He pointed the weapon toward me. He takes the ring, he was wearing gloves. He asked me where the jewels and the money are."

Reliving the terrifying moment she was tied up in an interview with police just hours after she was robbed, Kardashian West said she was naked underneath her bathrobe when they "caught me and took me in the lobby".

"Then we went in the room again and they pushed me on the bed," she continued.

"And, at this time, they strapped me with plastic cables and tape on my hands, then they taped my mouth and my legs.

"They carried me in my bathroom, more specifically in my bathtub."

Kardashian West said after the men fled she removed her ties, realising the men were "a bit young because of the way they strapped me", before going to her friend's room to call for help.

In the statement, she also detailed the jewellery that was stolen, including a two Cartier diamond bracelets. three gold Jacob necklace, a Rolex watch and diamond earrings by Lauren Schwartz.

A recently released trailer of the upcoming Keeping Up With The Kardashians season shows her tearfully recounting the ordeal.

"They’re gonna shoot me in the back,” she says in the trailer. "There’s no way out."

"It makes me so upset to think about it."

The police statement's publication comes just days after 10 people were charged over the robbery, including the family's 27-year-old chauffeur.

Kardashian West is set to travel to France to give evidence against the suspects.

Read the full police statement below:

“I came in Paris by plane for the fashion week. I came back around 12 midnight to go to bed.

“I was attending a fashion dinner. I came back with Simone Harouche and my sister Kourtney.

“We all moved up in my room 1A and friends, a couple, went to my room and left around 1am.

“I have to make it clear that Simone hadn’t come with us and that she was sleeping when I came back.

“My assistant Stephanie and my sister Kourtney changed clothes. Then, I went to my computer upstairs and I worked.

“I heard noises at the door, like footsteps, and I asked, shouting, who was there, no one answered.

“I called at 2.56am my bodyguard. I saw through the sliding door two people coming, plus the man from the reception who was strapped.

“The two men were hooded, the one had a ski mask and he had a cap and a jacket with 'Police' written on it.

“The second individual had the same clothes but didn’t wear ski goggles.

“The individual with the ski goggles rips out my Blackberry phone. The one with the ski goggles was 1,70 meters high, slim, black pants, black boots, he spoke to me in French. He was a European-type individual.

“The second individual was also European, he was taller and stayed with the security agent. He was around 1.80 meters high and he was dressed in the same way.

“It’s the one with the ski goggles who stayed with me. He asked me with a strong French accent where my ring was. It was placed on the bedside table. It costs $4 million.

“I answered him saying 'I don’t know', he takes out a weapon and I show him the ring.

“He pointed the weapon toward me. He takes the ring, he was wearing gloves. He asked me where the jewels and the money are.

“They caught me and took me in the lobby. I was wearing a bathrobe, naked underneath. Then we went in the room again and they pushed me on the bed.

“And, at this time, they strapped me with plastic cables and tape on my hands, then they taped my mouth and my legs.

“They carried me in my bathroom, more specifically in my bathtub. I forgot to tell you that when they pushed me on the bed, they headed toward my handbag and they cleared everything.

“My Vuitton jewellery box was near my bag and, at that time, he said something to the other individual, shouting.

“In my jewellery box, there were two bracelets by Cartier, all with diamonds, a necklace by Jacob all in gold and diamond, diamond earrings by Lauren Schwartz, and the others were by Yanina.

“There were three necklaces by Jacob all in gold, little bracelets, jewels, rings.

“A necklace by Lauren Schwartz all in diamonds, another necklace with six little diamonds on it. A last necklace with my son’s name 'Saint' all in diamond.

“I also had just a cross-shaped diamond, by Jacob. A watch by Rolex all in yellow gold. There were two rings in yellow gold.

“I think they robbed me for $5 million. They didn’t rob my cash. They took my iPhone 6, the number is XXXXX, and the Blackberry. Then they left, running.

“During the heist, they had the hotel’s mobile phone which didn’t stop ringing and they were speaking in French. I thought they said they got to leave.

“Then, I removed the tape from my hands and my mouth, I removed the plastic.

“I realised they were a bit young because of the way they strapped me.

“I removed the tape on my legs. I ran to Simone’s room. Then I called my sister Kourtney with Simone’s phone. Simone called her bodyguard because she was hearing some noise.
