Spanish prosecutors in Madrid have ended an investigation into singer Julio Iglesias following accusations of sexual abuse by two former employees. The women filed a complaint in Spain alleging abuse in the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas. Iglesias denied the accusations, calling them "absolutely false" in a social media post. Prosecutors closed the case because the alleged incidents occurred outside of Spanish territory, and the accusers do not reside or have their center of life in Spain, therefore Spanish officials do not have jurisdiction. The accusations surfaced after a joint investigation by news outlets highlighted broader allegations from 15 people accusing Iglesias of sexual assault and harassment.
