Lucio Urtubia

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lucio Urtubia Jiménez (18 February 1931 – 18 July 2020) was a Spanish anarchist. He was known for his anarchism. He was compared to Robin Hood.[1] Urtubia carried out bank robberies and forgeries throughout the 1960s and 1970s.

In the words of Albert Boadella, "Lucio is a Quijote that did not fight against wind mills, but against a true giant".

Urtubia died on July 18, 2020, aged 89.[2]
