Shakira Decline’s Offer in Tax Trial

Shakira is closer to possibly facing trial for tax fraud. Reuters reported that she declined the prosecutor’s settlement offer.

In a press release, her team stated that she has always met all tax obligations and called the case a total violation of her rights.

“The singer is fully confident of her innocence and therefore does not accept a settlement.”

According to the spokesperson, the Spanish Tax Office continues to violate her rights and labeled her case baseless.

Shakira is accused of not paying taxes on 14.5 million euros between 2012 and 2014. They claim that she lived in Spain, despite her residence being in the Bahamas.
