The late actor Sean Connery, 91-year-old widow Michelin Rockbrunn, faces a prison sentence and a £ 21 million fine for tax fraud in Spain, writes The Sun.
She has been accused of involvement in fraud by selling the two houses together in Marvel. The woman denies these accusations.
Despite the actor’s death, the Spanish authorities insisted that the case continue and warned that Michelle would have to appear in court. According to The Sun, the Spanish authorities have already twice formally sent requests to notify Michelin of the charges in the Bahamas, where the couple have been living in recent years, but have not received a response.
According to The Sun, in 2014, lawyers reassured Connery that he was not threatened with litigation following the sale of the controversial home in 1999.
The house was demolished and replaced by a building with 70 apartments, although the building regulations allowed only a five-apartment house to be built. After the fraud, the actor’s lawyers and the mayor of Marvelia were sentenced to prison.
Connery had been married to Rockbrunn for 45 years.
It has already been reported that Scottish film actor Sir Sean Connery died in October at the age of 90. For millions of viewers around the world, he will be remembered as James Bond, the protagonist who was immortalized in 1962 by the actor in his first film as a British superagent (“Dr. No”). Connie has played the hero created by Ian Fleming in a total of seven films.
