…she was told she had to pay taxes that she didn’t owe. It was a shakedown, which is quite common for the Spanish tax agency.
And I understand it when you owe tens of millions of euros and plenty of resources to make everything properly.
She did everything properly, but the tax agency illegally imposed a fine on her anyway.
Remember that in Spain the tax agency loses 51 % of trials. I assume the percent would be even higher if everybody could afford to defend themselves.
And the other 20 million Euros she settled for the next fiscal years?
