Venezuelan reporter's kidnap ordeal

Gunmen forced Venezuelan reporter Carlos Sánchez into a car after he left the offices of Radio Fe y Alegría in the city of Maracaibo in western Venezuela.

During an hour-long drive around the city the kidnappers threatened him and spoke about other journalists working for the broadcaster, saying they were involved in things that were none of their business.

Sánchez was released after being beaten and robbed.
