Sean Connery told to cough up cash From: Herald Sun November 22, 2010 1:00AM Sean Connery and wife Micheline made $8.5m on the sale of their beachfront mansion in Spain. Picture: Tim Aylen Source: AP SEAN Connery has been ordered by a Spanish judge to contribute to a $77 million bond as part of a money-laundering and property fraud investigation. Judge Ricardo Puyol named the former James Bond star as one of the individuals who must deposit the combined sum as surety in the probe into a number of property deals, including the 1998 sale of the actor's beachfront mansion near Marbella, Spain. Connery and his wife Micheline made $8.5 million in the sale but allegedly failed to pay $2 million to the local authority. The property was knocked down to allow for 72 luxury apartments to be built, despite planning permission for just five family houses. The condominiums were said to have yielded a $75 million profit.
