Shakira Agrees to Deal with Spanish Authorities, Averting Risk of Prison Sentence

Shakira appeared in court in Barcelona on Monday to face charges of tax fraud. After eight minutes, the trial was called off after she agreed to a deal with Spanish authorities, which included a three-year suspended sentence and a fine of 7 million euros. This was in response to six counts of failing to pay the Spanish government 14.5 million euros in taxes between 2012 and 2014.
