Spanish Thief Saw Himself as
Robin Hood-like Bandit
Madrid (Reuters)-Spain's most wanted thief, "The
Loner", saw himself as a Robin Hood-style figure and said he robbed banks
only because they stole money from the public, his lawyer said Thursday.
Accused of killing three policemen and holding up more
than 30 banks, Jaime Jimenez Arbe was planning to move on to insurance
companies when he was arrested last month, Spanish media reported, citing
lawyer Jose Mariano Trillo-Figueroa.
"I am not a killer and if I was obliged to shoot
at officers of the law, it was always against my will and in order to avoid
being arrested," Jimenez said in a letter reproduced on the websites of
newspapers El Pais and El Mundo. Trillo-Figueroa said, Jimenez, who robbed the
banks disguised in a false beard and a wig, thinks of himself as Curro Jimenez,
a Spanish 1970s television bandit in the style of Robin Hood.
The Loner was arrested in Portugal, armed with a
submachine gun in preparation for another bank robbery—Reuters.

The
following text is for questions 15 to 18
Kang Choi Hwan was born into a loyal family that
had once lived in the large Korean community of Japan. In Kyoto, his
grandfather had been a supporter of Kim II Sung, North Korean's Great Leader
since 1945. In 1961 the grandfather returned with his family to North Korea and
had an important government post.
Within months, however, he was complaining to
friends that North Korea was not the country he had expected. He was shocked to
see so much poverty, which he eventually came to blame on the government's
stifling grip on the economy. One morning in July 1977, when Kang was nine, his
grandfather left for work and never returned.
A few weeks later, seven plain-clothed security
guards stormed into Kang's house. "Your grandfather Betrayed the
fatherland," one of them stated. "You must be punished."
Kang's parents and grandmother sobbed as they
were forced to pack their belongings into two army trucks. The family was
driven off, but Kang's mother was left behind, 'spared' because her own father
was regarded as a revolutionary hero. That was the last time Kiang ever saw
her.
