DBasia.news – Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Madrid. The Guardian reported Ronaldo is currently in Madrid to finish his tax evasion case and he submitted the plea to minimize the sanction.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been involved in some recent years, since his period in Real Madrid.
In 2017, Madrid court accused Cristiano Ronaldo owned an illegal company in Virgin Island to avoid the tax.
In that allegation, Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t mention the 28,4 million euro (Rp459 billion) of his revenue. The Portugal national team captain was reported just acknowledging 11,5 million euro (Rp242 billion) of his revenue.
Now, Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Madrid on Tuesday 922/1). His girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, accompanies Ronaldo.
It’s reported Cristiano Ronaldo would finish the problem by submitting the plea. It means the former Manchester United player admits that he is guilty.
The plea practice is common. By admitting the mistake, the suspect would be sanctioned lower than the initial verdict.
Cristiano Ronaldo must pay 19 million euro as the sanction. If he refused to pay it, he must be jailed for 23 months.
Based on Spain legal case, the suspect could be free from jail if the case involved the first violation. Cristiano Ronaldo is in that category and only needs to pay the fine.
