2019 Davis Cup - Day Seven
MADRID, SPAIN - NOVEMBER 24: Musician Shakira performs in the opening ceremony prior to the Final between Spain and Canada during Day Seven of the 2019 David Cup at La Caja Magica on November 24, 2019 in Madrid, Spain.
After determining that there is proof that the pop diva might have evaded her fiscal duties to the state, a Spanish court examining alleged tax fraud by Colombian musician Shakira recommended that the matter proceeds to trial on Thursday.
Judge Marco Juberas stated that after a three-year investigation it was found out there was "sufficient proof of criminality" to send the matter to a trial judge. Prosecutors allege that the singer neglected to pay up to 14.5 million euros ($16.4 million) in tax revenue generated between 2012 and 2014.
