Legal crackdown on Shakira, accused of tax evasion of Rs 59 crore

Pop icon Shakira is once again in the headlines due to tax evasion allegations. In Spain, he is accused of not paying taxes worth 7.1 million dollars (about 59 crore Indian rupees). Although this matter is old, investigation on it was started again in July 2023.

World famous singer Shakira seems to be in legal trouble. According to a report, he has been accused of tax evasion of 7.1 million dollars (about 59 crores) by the Spanish official in Barcelona on Tuesday. According to the report, Shakira had allegedly failed to pay taxes to the Spanish government in 2018. It is alleged that Singer had used an offshore company in a tax haven to avoid paying taxes.

Let us tell you, Shakira has been in the news for a long time regarding the tax dispute. According to a report, in November 2022, he had refuted the claims of Spanish officials. She said that she was not a resident of Spain between 2012 and 2014.

Spanish government's stance

According to Spanish law, people have to pay tax only if they spend 183 days or more there in a year. Shakira denied spending so much time in Spain at that time. Shakira claims that she has paid taxes to the US government between 2012-14 and has paid $10,141,075.

Shakira's Spain connection

Shakira lived in Spain with famous football player Gerard Pique. Both lived together for about 11 years. Both of them were married, but their relationship did not work out. Last year both of them separated from each other. The couple also has two children, whose names are Milan and Sasha. Allegedly Gerard was cheating on her due to which both of them separated.

In an interview given to a magazine in September last year, Shakira had said that she still has not been able to come out of that period. He said that even today it is very difficult for him to talk about divorce.
