Two British orchid hunters kidnapped by guerrillas nine months ago in the Colombian jungle have walked to freedom unharmed after they were released by their captors.
Tom Hart Dyke, 24, a horticulturalist from Eynsford, Kent, and Paul Winder, 29, a merchant banker from Chelmsford, Essex, trekked through wilderness for eight days. After getting lost in the dense jungle, they were forced to return to the guerrillas to ask for a map, set off again, and finally stumbled across a park ranger.
When they arrived back in Britain, Mr Hart Dyke said they had shared an extraordinary camaraderie with the guerrillas – even stopping for a drink and a cigarette when they returned to ask for a map – but had been terrified when they were first captured. “Initially they used their guns to get us on to
the ground, they tied us up for half an hour and said, ‘Are you going to run?’ After that it
never happened again,” he said.
Their captors treated them well, built them a bed and gave Mr Winder antibiotics for a foot infection. They showed Mr Hart Dyke the rare orchids he had been looking for, and he joked that he had put on weight thanks to the diet of beef and bananas.
But Mr Winder said: “We’re not used to living in that environment. They [the guerrillas] are very strong people, and we couldn’t always keep up with them, but we always did our best. It was a team effort.”
“We tried to live off each other. There were low times, high times, terrifying times and fantastic times. It was a huge rollercoaster of emotion. We always had confidence that we would get back to England and see our families.”
The two men set out from Yaviza in Panama to the Darien Gap, a roadless region on the border with Colombia. It is a lawless no man’s land where leftist rebels and rightwing paramilitaries battle to dominate key drug- and arms-smuggling routes. The guerrillas did not identify themselves or explain the purpose of the kidnapping. Although they said they would demand a ransom of $5m for each man, they never did.
