Article about Marie on Aftonbladet

Can someone give an accurate translation please? Not the good moment for such a story to come back in newspapers...

My reading Swedish is pretty crap but does that say something along the lines of she owes 2 million krona to Skatteverket in respect of the worldtour in 94 -95 ???

Something about fees for her husband not being paid, and that it is going back to court for a 3rd time... works out at about £148,000!

It says that she will have to pay over 2 million crowns as a fine because of irregularities when she declared the income of some concerts in Germany during the Crash Boom Bang tour (among other irregularities), and that Per Gessle is supposed to be fined as well.

I heard about this a few years ago...it’s still going??? During CBB Per and Marie didn’t declare their tax earnings for the German leg of the tour, they got paid through a company if I recall correctly. The Swedish IRS found out and demanded they pay the tax. I think Marie and Per tried to claim they did nothing wrong, and it’s still going today. Aftonbladet are just digging up old scandals since Rox are news again.

The title changed on the topic! lol

Ally: it’s not the first time we edit topic titles (and sure it won’t be the last one), so I don’t understand the fuzz about it?

4. No blind SmallTalk thread topics. A reader should not have to guess as to what the topic is about; should not have to “click in” in order to discover that. For example, “Guess what?” would AT LEAST need to be “Guess what song I just heard on the radio?.” Since that still involves a bit of guessing, “Just heard ’One Wish’ on WPLJ New York” would be better yet.

From what I understand Per and Marie claim they got paid to their company Roxette Productions, but the Swedish IRS claims they should pay tax on a personal basis. We’ll see what happens.

Judith I never made a fuss, I just made a point, never noticed topic titles changed before... yet I spotted two today....

unfortunately, there have been A LOT since the beginning.

But now back to topic (article).

thnx, jude for helping me out with the title! it did need a change, I don’t see anything wrong in changing it, on the contrary. It wasn’t appropriate to express my amazement through a senseless title.
now, yes, back to the topic: i guess they brought out the news not only because roxette are en vogue right now, but also because a decision has been recently made regarding marie’s “case”. but it is indeed a bad time.
when per’s “case” will come out in the media as well, will be even worse...
