Two Dutch journalists abducted last weekend by rebels of left-wing National Liberation Army (ELN)  in Colombia have been released, Reuters reported.

A TV journalist Derk Johannes Bolt and a TV cameraman Eugenio Ernest Marie were seized while working in El Tarra in Norte de Santander, which borders Venezuela.

The 2,000-strong ELN frequently kidnaps Colombians and foreigners, many of whom work in oil operations, for ransom and political leverage.
