Dolores Aveiro, the mother of Real Madrid
star Cristiano Ronaldo, was stopped at Madrid’s Barajas Airport last
month and caught carrying an illegally large amount of cash as she
prepared to fly out of the country, the newspaper El Mundo reported.
According to The Telegraph,
60-year-old Aveiro, who spends long periods of time with her
multimillionaire footballer son in his luxury mansion outside Madrid,
was held by....
border police at Barajas after it was found that she had
€55,000 (£40,000) in her hand luggage. Rules against money laundering
state that the maximum travellers are permitted to take out of Spain
without declaring the transfer is €10,000.
Aveiro had not filled out a declaration
form and, according to the Spanish daily, was held by civil guard agents
at the airport for a few minutes while the excess amount of cash was
confiscated. She was then allowed to fly to Portugal with €10,000 in her
handbag.
Aveiro will now be fined at least €600
for the attempt to illegally export cash. By paying the fine, she will
be able to collect the confiscated €45,000.
