Former governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger faces criminal charges for tax evasion.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Hollywood action hero, was briefly detained at Munich airport on Wednesday for failing to declare a luxury watch, according to a customs spokesperson 1. The 76-year-old former governor of California was stopped in the airport's customs area after arriving from the United States. He was allowed to continue his journey later in the day but without the watch due to legal issues.
The customs spokesperson, Thomas Meister added that criminal proceedings were initiated against the “Terminator” star and former bodybuilding icon for tax evasion 1. According to Meister, tax should have been paid on the watch because Schwarzenegger intended to sell it in the European Union.
The luxury timepiece was due to be auctioned at a fundraising dinner for Schwarzenegger’s climate initiative in Kitzbuehel, Austria on Thursday 1. Items typically auctioned at such dinners include works of art, signed memorabilia, and other collectibles 1. The Swiss Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet custom-made the watch for Arnold Schwarzenegger.
