Missing $800,000 Diamond Ring Found in Vacuum Cleaner Bag at Ritz Paris

The ring's owner, a Malaysian businesswoman, had filed a police complaint suspecting theft; the hotel has a history of high-profile jewelry thefts.

A diamond ring worth over $800,000, reported missing by a Malaysian businesswoman at the Ritz hotel in Paris, was found in a vacuum cleaner bag two days later.
The businesswoman had initially suspected an employee of stealing the ring and filed a police complaint.
The hotel's security team conducted a thorough search, eventually finding the ring in the vacuum bag.
The Ritz offered the guest three additional nights as compensation for the inconvenience, which she declined.
The Ritz Paris has a history of high-profile thefts, including a 2018 incident where a member of the Saudi royal family reported around $900,000 worth of jewelry missing from her suite.
