Shakira has started a new life in the city of Miami, after her separation with Gerard Piqué. However, her stay in America must be interrupted and the Colombian must return to Barcelona this year.
But why should Shakira leave Miami and return to Barcelona? International news agencies such as EFE reported during the week that everything was related to the Trial of the Treasury against the interpreter of “Te Felicito”.
Mezcalent also revealed that the singer’s defense rejected an agreement to avoid facing the Spanish court for her million-dollar debt with the Treasury, this legal process is what will take Shakira back to Barcelona. It is unknown if Shakira will make this trip in the company of her children and if it is limited only to trial appointments.
Efe also assured that there is a possibility that would allow the trial to be shortened, but everything depends on Shakira. It is worth remembering that the Spanish prosecutor’s office asks for eight years and two months in prison for the Colombian, plus a fine of 23.8 million euros. But they assure that there is the possibility of reaching a pact at the last minute with the accusations, the Public Ministry and the State Attorney’s Office, to accept a sentence reduction all in exchange for it recognizing the fraud.
When is your return scheduled?
Time will begin to run for Shakira from the month of November. Specifically since November 20 when the trial begins. Efe confirmed that it is expected that it will take place during twelve sessions between that month and the next with some two hundred witnesses.
Due to the agreements that have been reached, everything seems to indicate that Shakira may have to travel to Spain twice. According to Efe, Shakira would have to attend the trial only in the session in which her statement is scheduled and in the last day, in which the defendant has the right to deliver a final argument.
How much does Shakira’s debt amount to, the prosecution accuses her of crimes against the public Treasury for defrauding 14.5 million euros between 2012 and 2014 by pretending that she did not reside in Spain, according to the aforementioned news agency.
