Due to accusations of tax avoidance, Shakira (Shakira) is facing legal issues. He has labelled the tax fraud claims as “false.” Prior to the release of her record five years later, the singer opened up about the accusations in detail for the first time.
Shakira reportedly turned down a settlement offer that would have avoided a trial in the tax fraud case, according to Entertainment Weekly. The actress claims she was not residing in Spain between 2012 and 2014, when she was originally charged with dodging $15 million in taxes.
Shakira reportedly lived there at the time because she had purchased a home in Barcelona in 2012. He may receive a prison sentence and a $24 million fine if found guilty. The pop artist called the Spanish government’s assertions “false allegations” in an interview with Elle magazine. They intend to take on the situation alone.
Shakira claims that because she did not stay in the nation for the requisite 183 days, she is not subject to taxes. The artist claims that she was occupied attending to her worldwide professional obligations. They claim they don’t want to donate any money to the government of Spain.
Shakira deemed the claims made by the Spanish government to be untrue.
“I had paid everything relevant to his claim before bringing the lawsuit,” he said. I was convinced that I acted properly and openly from the start because I haven’t paid any dues to yet and was mentored by PricewaterhouseCoopers, one of the four biggest tax expert businesses in the world.
Shakira made grave claims.
Furthermore, he said that the Spanish government lacked any proof to support these fabricated charges. They typically act in that manner. In order to sway people’s opinions, exert pressure on the media, and urge them to calm down by threatening or harming reputations, they have turned to press campaigns.
Shakira has enough proof to make her case.
“Everyone knows that the Spanish tax authorities are unfairly treating average taxpayers as well as celebrities like Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar,” she continues. “Not only are they doing this to me. This is exactly how they are, but I think I have strong enough evidence to win my case, and justice will be served in my favour.
