Princess Cristina, King Juan Carlos’s younger daughter, testified as a suspect in a corruption probe of her husband’s business activities and told the court she had no knowledge of his financial affairs.
Cristina said she signed “whatever her husband put in front of her,” Virginia Lopez, a lawyer at the closed-door hearing told reporters after the princess left the Palma de Mallorca court house smiling. She was “evasive,” spoke of her “trust in her husband” and didn’t know the answer to most of the questions, according to Manuel Delgado, another lawyer who briefed reporters on the six-hour hearing.
