Around 1995, Professors Lupacciolu, Chirka and Stout showed that a closed subset of ${{\mathbb{C}}^{N}}\left( N\ge 2 \right)$ is removable for holomorphic functions, if its topological dimension is less than or equal to $N\,-\,2$. Besides, they asked whether closed subsets of ${{\mathbb{C}}^{2}}$ homeomorphic to the real line (the simplest 1-dimensional sets) are removable for holomorphic functions. In this paper we propose a positive answer to that question.
