News of a Kidnapping is based on a true story about the kidnapping of a Columbian female journalist and a former minister for education Maruja Pachón, committed by the drug cartel in the 1990s. The text reports the series of kidnappings, realistically describing the cruelty and mercilessness of the kidnappers, the misery of victims, their attempts to break free and the murders that took place alongside the unsuccessful negotiations between the government and the criminals, who were against the new law about the extradition. This law gave the government the right to extradite members of the drug mafia to the USA, where they would have been handled completely differently. A vicious war was raging in the country taking lives of the innocent people.
