Clara Rojas, une femme libre. par Thomas Samson/Made in Press
Le 23 février 2002, Clara Rojas a été enlevée par les FARCS.
Après avoir vécu l’enfer dans la jungle colombienne pendant six ans, Clara Rojas, l’ex directrice de campagne d’Ingrid Betancourt, se livre dans une autobiographie au titre très révélateur « Captive ».

A semi-nomadic people, the Afar or Danakils spark both interest and fear.The mystery that shrouds them and their physical beauty draws interest,while their reputation for cruelty is frightening. All sorts of legends about them abound describing them as pitiless killers. The uncertain origin of the Afar shrouds them in further mystery. Lucy, the oldest human skeleton found on earth, was discovered in the middle of the Afar region.
