There were more dramatic scenes in Colombia with one of the released hostages, Clara Rojas. She was reunited with her 3-year-old son in Bogota. Rojas gave birth while in captivity and says the father is a member of the rebel group that held her. Emmanuel, was born in an improvised cesarean section that left him with a broken arm and Rojas bedridden for 40 days. Because the child became ill, rebels took him away when he was 8 months old. Colombian officials found him in foster care, and DNA tests proved he is Rojas' son.
