LUIS Diaz\u2019s mum fought back tears today as she urged her husband\u2019s guerrilla kidnappers to release him from his eight-day ordeal.<\/p>\n

Cilenis Marulanda made her impassioned plea as she took part in a second march to demand Luis Manuel Diaz\u2019s freedom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with her husband's face and the message 'your family is waiting for you', she told reporters: \u201cI want them to release him now.<\/p>\n

"That the people who are keeping him free him now back to me, because we want to have him back home."<\/p>\n

The 58-year-old was taken hostage at gunpoint alongside his wife on Saturday October 28 at a petrol station in Colombia.<\/p>\n

The kidnap by communist ELN rebels is believed to have been masterminded by a 40-year-old female fighter called Patricia.<\/p>\n

Colombian authorities have offered a reward of $200,000,000 Peso (\u00a340,600) for Luis Diaz's return.<\/p>\n

The kidnap sparked outrage in the South American nation, where Luis Diaz is immensely popular and plays for the national team.<\/p>\n

CCTV footage showed the D\u00edazes being followed by men on motorbikes in their hometown of Barrancas, in the northern province of La Guajira.<\/p>\n

Gunmen then accosted the couple at a petrol station, leaving Cilenis, before police closed in.<\/p>\n

Protests demanding Luis's release took place in their home town today.<\/p>\n

Police have been combing the mountainous Serran\u00eda del Perij\u00e1 area near the Venezuelan border for Diaz during a frantic week-long hunt.<\/p>\n
