Recently, a Colombian judge has sentenced two suspects to prison for kidnapping the parents of Liverpool soccer player, Luis Alberto Suarez Diaz. The two suspects, Elkin Fernando Salgado and Carlos Alberto Suarez, were found guilty of kidnapping the parents of the soccer star in February of 2020.
The kidnapping occurred in the city of Salgar, Colombia, where the two suspects were living at the time. The two men abducted the parents of Suarez Diaz and held them for ransom. After a long and difficult negotiation process, the parents were released unharmed.
The judge presiding over the case sentenced Elkin Fernando Salgado to nine years and eight months in prison, while Carlos Alberto Suarez received a sentence of eight years and four months. Both men were also ordered to pay a fine of $20,000 each.
The sentencing of these two suspects sends a strong message that kidnapping is a serious crime that will not be tolerated. It also serves as a reminder that no one is above the law, regardless of their social or economic status.
In addition to the sentencing of the two suspects, the judge also ordered that the ransom money be returned to Suarez Diaz’s parents. This is an important step in ensuring that victims of kidnapping are properly compensated for their suffering.
The sentencing of these two men is a victory for justice and a reminder that no one is above the law. It is also a reminder that kidnapping is a serious crime that will not be tolerated. Hopefully, this case will serve as an example to others who may consider committing such a crime in the future.
