The Colombian government has reported that the father of Liverpool striker Luis Díaz has been kidnapped by ELN guerrillas. The news of the abduction was confirmed by the Colombian Ministry of Defense on Tuesday.
The father of the 21-year-old footballer, Luis Díaz, was kidnapped by the ELN guerrillas in the municipality of El Tarra in Norte de Santander, Colombia. The Colombian government has stated that they are doing everything they can to ensure his safe return.
Luis Díaz is a rising star in the world of football, having signed with Liverpool in 2019. He has since become a regular starter for the club and has made a significant impact in their recent success.
The ELN guerrillas are a left-wing militant group that has been active in Colombia since 1964. They are considered to be the largest guerrilla group in the country and have been responsible for numerous kidnappings and other violent acts.
The kidnapping of Luis Díaz’s father is yet another example of the ELN’s disregard for human life and their willingness to use violence to achieve their goals. It is a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict between the Colombian government and the ELN guerrillas, and the need for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
The Colombian government has stated that they are committed to finding Luis Díaz’s father and ensuring his safe return. In the meantime, Luis Díaz and his family are in our thoughts and prayers.
