Shakira, one of the most famous Latin singers in the world, experienced a great drama a few years ago due to tax problems in Spain, as she has been accused of tax fraud, being even mocked by the press. Despite all the problems she experienced, we all thought it would be in the past, but now Shakira is facing a second investigation for tax fraud in Spain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A few years ago, the Colombian lived alongside her ex-partner, Gerard Piqu\u00e9, problems with the Spanish tax authorities, but the only one who was affected was Shakira, since it seems that Piqu\u00e9 was pardoned<\/strong> due to his nationality.<\/p>\n

Today, a judge in the city of Barcelona, Spain, opened a second investigation for the alleged tax fraud committed by Shakira in 2018, despite the fact that the artist is still awaiting trial for an alleged tax evasion of $16.2 million<\/strong> between the years 2012, 2013 and 2014, all this as reported this Thursday by a Spanish court.<\/p>\n

The investigating judge of the Barcelona district of Esplugues de Llobregat “opened an investigation based on a complaint filed by the prosecutor’s office against singer Shakira for two alleged crimes”<\/strong><\/em> of tax fraud in 2018, the press office of the Superior Court of the city said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“As she has stated on numerous occasions, Shakira defends having always acted in compliance with the law and under the guidance of the best tax experts. She is now focused on her artistic life in Miami and is calm and confident in a favorable resolution of her tax matters. Shakira has not yet received formal notification of the latest investigation,” adds the article from her legal team.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/figure>\n \n

Judge Marco Jes\u00fas Juber\u00edas,<\/strong> argued that the singer defrauded the Spanish tax authorities by living more than 200 days in Spain in each of those three years, so she is obliged to pay taxes in the country like any other person residing there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
