梅西因税收欺诈被判监禁

Barcelona football star Lionel Messi and his father will appeal against a Spanish court decision to sentence them each to 21 months in jail for tax fraud, the player’s lawyers say.

巴塞罗那足球明星莱昂内尔·梅西和他的父亲正要向西班牙的一家法院提起上诉,该法院以税收欺诈罪判决他们21个月的监禁,该球员的律师说。

Argentine Messi, aged 29, was also fined 2m euros (1.7m pounds; 2.2m dollars) by the court in Barcelona.

阿根廷人梅西,29岁,还被这个位于巴塞罗那的法院罚款200万欧元(170万英镑;220万美元)。

In addition to the prison term, Messi’s father, Jorge, was fined 1.5m euros for defrauding Spain of 4.1m euros in 2007-09.

除了监禁,梅西的父亲,Jorge,因2007-2009年间欺诈西班牙政府410万欧元,被罚150万欧元。

However, neither man is expected to serve time in jail.

然而,他们都不会真的入狱服刑。

Under the Spanish legal system, prison terms of under two years can be served under probation.

根据西班牙法律系统,少于两年的刑期可以缓刑。

The pair also face millions of euros in fines for using tax havens in Belize and Uruguay to conceal earnings from image rights.

他们因利用伯利兹和乌拉圭的避税天堂欺瞒通过肖像权得到的收入,面临数百万欧元的罚款。

’Corrective payment’

“补救性支付”

"The sentence is not correct and we are confident the appeal will show the defence was right," Messi’s lawyers said in a statement several hours after the guilty verdict was delivered.

梅西的律师在有罪判决下达几小时后发表声明说“这个判决不恰当,我们相信上诉会让大家知道我们的辩护是正当的。”

The lawyers said that "there is a good chance that the appeal will succeed", adding that Messi had always acted in good faith.

律师说:“上诉成功的几率很大”,还说梅西一向善意行事。

The sentence can be appealed against via the Spanish supreme court.

这项判决可通过西班牙最高法院上诉。

The footballer and his father were found guilty of three counts of tax fraud.

这个足球运动员和他的父亲被判三项税收诈骗罪。

As well as the jail terms, Messi and Jorge were also fined. They made a voluntary 5m euros "corrective payment", equal to the alleged unpaid tax plus interest, in August 2013.

除了监禁,梅西和他的父亲还被罚款。2013年8月,他们自愿地“补救性支付”5百万欧元,抵偿他们所涉嫌的未付税款(加利息)。

Messi earns an estimated 36m euros per year at Barcelona, and his income of about 315m euros in the past decade has placed him 10th of Forbes magazine’s list of the highest-earning athletes in the world.

梅西大约每年在巴塞罗那赚3600万欧元,过去十年间3.15亿欧元的收入,已使他进入福布斯杂志全球收入最高运动员之列的第十位。
