Police made the arrests in two separate swoops in Paris and its northern suburbs. They also found one and a quarter million Euros in cash as well as a quantity of arms.

It seems they had obtained information that intermediaries carrying some of the stolen jewels had come back to France with the intention of selling them.

The heist at the Harry Winston store on the luxury Avenue Montaigne was among the most daring and certainly the biggest jewel theft in French history.

Two of the four man gang were dressed as stylish women. They pulled out revolvers and made off with the store's entire contents.

Police think there must have been an inside connection and among those who've been arrested is a guard at the store.

It's believed the suspects have links to the Paris underworld and are not therefore members of the international gang known as the Pink Panthers which has been blamed for scores of jewellery thefts in some twenty different countries in recent years.
