FC Barcelona Star Midfielder Javier Mascherano Sentenced To One Year Imprisonment For Tax Evasion

-




Javier Mascherano has been sentenced to a year in prison but is unlikely to ever serve time in jail, after a verdict was reached in his tax evasion case.
The Argentine has been fined €815,000 and handed a year's sentence for two counts of fiscal crimes committed in 2011 and 2012.
Mascherano has previously admitted to the offences, repaid the money owed and paid a hefty fine as recompense.
After such compliance with the investigation, the court is expected to grant the wish of Mascherano and his lawyer, David Aineto, in suspending the custodial sentence in exchange for a further fine.

Bolt Has Now won 9 World Titles. Three Golds In The 100M, Three In 200M, Three In Sprint Relays Usain Bolt produced perhaps his greatest performance of all as he put a troubled build-up behind him to beat two-time doper and clear favourite Justin Gatlin to retain his world 100m title.  The controversial Gatlin came into the final on a 28-race unbeaten run and apparently relishing his role as the sport's bad guy. But at the same Bird's Nest stadium in Beijing where Bolt announced himself to the world with two Olympic golds and two world records in 2008, the Jamaican superstar came past a faltering Gatlin at the death to snatch victory by one hundredth of a second.  Bolt's 9.79 seconds was more than two tenths off his world record, but this was a night for athletics to celebrate victories rather than times.  Canada's Andre de Grasse and young American Trayvon Bromell were ...
