The singer faces a legal problem for her alleged link to 4 crimes against the Treasury

The totality of the fraud would be 14.5 million euros according to the Barcelona Court

If his separation from Gerard Piqué was not enough, now Shakira has decided to go to trial voluntarily for an alleged fraud against the Treasury of 14.5 million of euros. The Barcelona Court allegedly links her to four crimes committed against the Tax Agency whose amount would be the figure described above. The jurisdictional body rejected the appeal issued by the singer, in which she presented allegations to exempt herself from this crime.

For its part, the prosecution presented a series of documents that reflected that The Colombian spent more than 180 days in Spain between 2012 and 2014, but her defense assured that she was in the Bahamas Islands.

Now, the communication agency of Shakira has ruled on the matter about the state and development of this judicial confrontation: the legal team of the Colombian has rejected an agreement with the Barcelona Prosecutor’s Office because it prefers “leave the issue in the hands of the law, with the peace of mind and the confidence that justice will prove you right“.
