MADRID Cristina de Borbón, sister of the King of Spain, Philip VI, he will face trial on charges of tax evasion, the Superior Court of Balearic Islands said Monday, prolonging the shame of the family real, which has tried to distance himself from a corruption investigation.
The charges were filed as part of an investigation into the affairs of the husband of Cristina, the former Olympic handball Iñaki Urdangarin, accused of embezzling million in public funds through Nóos Institute, a nonprofit organization.
This is the first time a member of the Spanish royal family sit on the dock.
