We are not Ronaldo or Messi or any celeb so we cannot expect any special treatment so we need to follow the rules.

Celebrities, as public figures, have a higher influence and visibility and therefore, their actions may have a greater impact. Hence, the law should even be applied to them more to ensure accountability and prevent negative consequences for society.

Tax evasion is a crime and the one doing this must serve the law. It is also not tolerated in my country of birth. Many were jailed in my country because of evading taxes.
