MADRID (Reuters) - The Spanish king's sister, Princess Cristina, was acquitted on Friday of being an accessory to tax fraud at the end of a year-long trial seen as a test of whether Spain's rich and powerful are accountable to the law.
Cristina's husband, Inaki Urdangarin, was sentenced to over six years in prison on charges including fraud and tax evasion. Cristina was fined 265,000 euros ($282,000) for benefiting, albeit unknowingly, from her husband's ill-gotten gains.
