My reading is that it’s a suspended sentence.
That said, I see it less as corruption than as vigorous tax vampires wringing every last euro they can get their greasy fingers on.
Agressively going after an ill 80 year old woman who’s done more for her country than any 100 tax collectors put together does not endear the buggers to me.

Corruption is insane in Spain. Somebody needs to start saying that it’s not ok or this will never get better. I’m a great fan of Caballe and agree that she has done more for the country than most other people combined. But this just can’t go on.
