Two expatriate oil surveyors were travelling alone by car along an unfamiliar road when they were stopped at a roadblock. Criminals, who were using the roadblock as a trap to rob passers by, decided to up the ante when they recognised two foreigners and kidnapped the pair.
One surveyor was released along with a $5m ransom demand to take back to the company. The company selected its own security consultant, who was inexperienced and unfamiliar with the territory. The demand of $5m was ultimately paid. However, the negotiation of the safe return of the other employee took almost a year.
