Police in Colombia have detained four people in connection with the kidnapping of Luis Manuel Diaz, the father of Liverpool footballer Luis Diaz. Diaz Sr. was held hostage for nearly two weeks by members of the ELN guerilla group before being freed on Thursday. The ELN, currently in peace negotiations with the government, described the kidnapping as a "mistake." The suspects, belonging to a criminal group called Los Primos, were captured in the northern department of La Guajira, where the kidnapping took place. Diaz Sr. played a key role in his son's rise to becoming a Football Star.
