The latest news on the trial against world-renowned singer Shakira is shocking.

The current tax fraud case against Shakira is being tried in Spain. The amount is estimated to be more than $14.5 million, which the prosecution, deeming it malicious, has asked Shakira to serve eight years in prison.

The latest news from the trial against the world-renowned singer Shakira is shocking.

It should be noted that Shakira had just recently rejected a plea deal from the prosecutor’s office that was requested to settle the case.

The case was first reported in December 2018. In June 2019, Shakira herself took the stand and assured the court that she had done nothing wrong.

Meanwhile, in May of this year, Shakira reportedly declined to appeal following a judge’s decision that there was “evidence of criminality” that warranted a trial.

Shakira has also claimed that she did not live in Spain during the period in question. However, prosecutors had submitted documents showing that Shakira lived in Spain between 2012 and 2014, that she bought a house in Barcelona in May 2012, and that she lived in that house with her partner and their son, born in Spain in 2013.

Prosecutors are seeking eight years in prison and the payment of more than $23.5 million in fines against Shakira if she is found guilty in the case. A trial date has not yet been announced.

In addition, Shakira’s representatives are confident that she is innocent and claim that the trial is a violation of her rights.
