Last weekend lifeboats and aircraft spent several days searching for a young man lost at sea off the coast of Carboneras. The alarm was raised when a fishing boat pulled another man from the water who told them he and his friend had tried to swim to shore when the motor of the boat they were in broke down. The situation was widely reported partly due to the fact that the missing man was the son of a local politician, the spokesman for the Popular Party in the town.
The plot thickened when it was discovered the boat the men abandoned had been reported stolen the day before the incident and the suspicions of the Guardia civil were heightened by inconsistencies in the different declarations given by the survivor. Now, as a result of the investigations carried out, there have been three arrests, including the man saved, for participation in an attempt to land hashish, for omision del deber de socorro which is the crime of not coming to the aid of someone whose life is in danger and for the theft of the boat.
