The Louvre Museum's director resigned Tuesday, ending months of questions in France's cultural world over why no top official had stepped down after the October crown jewels theft.
The Paris public prosecutor said investigators are making "major progress" in solving the brazen Oct. 19 Louvre heist and that two suspects in custody will be charged with "organized robbery."
Three men dressed as construction workers allegedly broke in by forcibly opening a rear door before removing a safe that had jewelry with an estimated value of $3.2 million.
As a deadline fast approaches to either charge to release two suspects, a French lawmaker ripped security at the Louvre.
Paris Prosecutor Laure Beccuau said the information made public about the arrests in the Louvre case should not have been disclosed.
French authorities have arrested two men in relation to last week's major jewel heist at Paris' Louvre Museum.
