Spanish prosecutors have accused Colombian star singer Shakira of tax evasion after authorities said she had to pay more than $ 16.3 million.
The charges relate to the period between 2012 and 2014, as prosecutors say that she was living in Spain but registered her residence in another country.
A person who has been living in Spain for more than six months is a resident who must pay taxes.
Sources close to Shakira denied the authenticity of the accusations against the famous singer and confirmed that she had been residing outside Spain.
But prosecutors say Shakira spent most of her time in Spain with her partner Gerrard Pique, a Barcelona footballer, and she was leaving Spain only to meet her professional obligations.
The singer, whose wealth is estimated at more than $ 200 million, is set to host Spain in 2015.
Officials are now seeking to collect taxes on Shakira's work around the world, not just in Spain.
A Spanish investigating judge is expected to decide whether there is sufficient evidence to bring the singer to trial.
Spain has recently seen a number of tax evasion cases involving famous players in the local league.
Real Madrid defender Marcelo Vieira admitted a tax evasion last September, which led to a four-month suspended sentence.
summary
It is obvious that many stars in various fields and in many Balbaldo and even politicians and the economy are seeking in every way to evade the performance of taxes with the knowledge that taxes are right for the poor and help in the development of countries and services
