28 May 1998,
The Andalusian councillor of the PP, Bartolomé Rubia Bartolín, reported that he was kidnapped by ETA. The media crowd was immediate and appeared that night saying it managed to escape the hijackers. Everything was a lie, as soon as he saw the police investigation. For his lie of gaining public fame, the source of jokes was throughout the Spanish state.
The group Acts contra el Decoro dedicated the song Bartolo.
