Description: Reporter Javier Ortega Reyes, photographer Paúl Rivas Bravo, and driver Efraín Segarra Abril employed by the Ecuadorian newspaper "El Comercio" were on a mission to investigate a wave of cocaine-fuelled violence in this the most unreported of South American world. They were kidnapped on or around March 26, 2018 along the border between Ecuador and Colombia by an armed group associated with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) known as "Oliver Sinisterra." Mystery still shrouds what exactly happened to Ortega and his team from El Comercio.
