Israeli top model Bar Refaeli has been convicted on Monday on four counts of tax offenses, capping a prolonged tax evasion case against her and her family.
Refaeli was accompanied by her father, her mother, Zipi, and their lawyers. The 35-year-old Refaeli and her mother confessed to offenses of evading paying taxes on income nearing $10 million.
Refaeli is to serve nine months of community service while her mother will be sent to prison for 16 months. The two are also ordered to pay a $1.5 million fine on top of millions of back taxes owed to the state.
