Months before the highly talked about robbery in Paris, Kim Kardashian’s personal security aide has filed for bankruptcy for his German security company after incurring debts over €1 million (AU$1.5 million).

The Daily Mail reported that Pascal Duvier’s ProtectSecurity firm has racked up debts totaling €1,093,518 (AU$1.6 million), citing documents it obtained from Germany.

“There is so much debt. There are many claimants. I cannot say the exact number. Lots,” said Duvier’s insolvency lawyer.

Aside from Kardashian and Kanye West, Duvier’s celebrity clients include the members of the Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera, among others.

The 43-year-old bodyguard was reportedly accompanying sisters Kendall and Kourtney Jenner at the Parisian nightclub L’Arc during Kim’s early Monday morning ordeal with thieves. The introders robbed the reality television star of AU$10 million (AU$14 million) worth of jewelries, including her massive engagement ring to rapper Kanye West. The ring was last seen on Kardashian’s finger in a photo taken hours before the heist. The accessory is reportedly worth US$3.4 million (AU$4.5 million).

Duvier arrived at Kardashian’s apartment on Hotel de Pourtales apartment minutes after the five-man gang left the crime scene. Reports now claim that Parisian police have traced CCTV footages showing the face of the assailants. The footages were taken from two cameras at the nearby Bel Ange nail salon. The robbers were seen speeding away with bikes from the ground-level carpark.

Duveir escorted Kardashian who returned to New York shortly after the heist. While police is considering the possibility that the robbery was an inside job, Kim does not blame her bodyguard for the incident.
