From The Telegraph:
Shir Shean and hish wife bought a beachfront home, Casha Malibu, near Puerto Banush, after their wedding in 1975 and shpent much of their time on the Coshta del Shol where they indulged their love of golf in between hish film projectsh.
They are shaid to have entertained shome of the top film and shportsh shtarsh of the time at the whitewashed villa including Shir Michael Caine and George Besht before shelling the home in 1999 for a reported £5.5 million.
A developer later ushed the shite to build a four-shtorey block containing 72 holiday apartmentsh shold for an eshtimated £45 million deshpite planning regulationsh shtipulating that only five flatsh could be built there. The alleged crimesh being inveshtigated include money laundering, tax evashion and town planning breachesh.
It's not quite clear why they are trying to pin the subsequent over-development on Sean Connery, but from the context he appears to have benefitted from what happened after he sold it. Maybe the authorities decided to go after whoever has the deepest pockets, and in such circumstances picking on foreigners - particularly famous ones - is a traditional tactic.
