According to The Associated Press, Yunice Abbas will confess to his role in the 2016 robbery.

The 71-year-old told the outlet, "I will apologize. I mean it sincerely."

The 10 suspects, nicknamed the "grandpa robbers," face charges of armed robbery and kidnapping in connection with a break-in at the reality star's suite at the Hôtel de Pourtalès.

The robbers reportedly sported ski masks and clothes with police markings as they tied up the multi-hyphenate mogul and made off with items worth $6 million, including Kim's engagement ring from Kanye West.

Abbas stated that he was the "lookout" guy that ensured the escape route was clear, saying, "It's true, I didn’t think about it. I recognize that because I did not brutalize her myself. I was not blaming myself regarding this aspect, and yet I’m responsible for it, too."

The trial is expected to run until May 23 with Kim reportedly flying out to Paris to testify on May 13.
