Christano Ronaldo In Tax Fraud
These are not good times for the fans of
CR7 and the player himself who seem to be disturbed about this recent
development.
The reigning World best soccer
player has tried to keep his image intact until news came in this morning from
the Tax office of Madrid claiming that CR7 evaded tax payments between 2011 and
2014.
Ronaldo is said to be owing a
wooping 16.5mUSD in tax funds according to news reaching us this morning.
According to reports, the soccer star has denied ever dodging tax or committing
any tax fraud after prosecutors filed a law suit against him for tax evasion in
Spain.
In a Crime tagged
‘Voluntary failure to comply with Tax obligation in Spain”. The prosecutor’s
office said the Madrid forward had knowingly used a business structure created
in 2010 to hide his image rights income in Spain between 2011 and 2014.
Gestifute an agency
representing the player has come out in defense of their client claiming there
has never been any tax evasion or any attempt to do so as a matter of
fact.
The agency promise to
publish every document to prove that the player had not put up the structure to
defraud but that he has always used companies he owned since living in Britain
and that both British and Spanish authority had been aware of.
Ronaldo follows a long
list of footballers accused of tax fraud and if found guilty of the crime, the
player who has just helped Real Madrid to a 12 Champions League Cup victory
could serve a jail term.
