yes, "abducted" is surely a better word choice but my comment was a reply to the title. so i used the same word and put it in quotation marks.
Now… why did they abduct a "whole other person" who is Nicolás Maduro's wife?
Kidnapped had been the appropriate word choice since the mid-1800’s at least.
not sure why we are arguing about word choice? if you understand the intent, just move on.. why be critical?
