French authorities only identified the new suspects as 37 and 38-years-old. They were charged with organized robbery and conspiracy to commit organized robbery and remanded into custody.
Additionally, three of the five people arrested on Oct. 29 have been released from custody, prosecutors said.
On Oct. 19, four masked thieves stole eight pieces of jewelry from the Louvre valued at $102 million in just seven minutes, sparking a national outcry and nationwide manhunt.
The stolen jewels remain missing.
