Notas de uso
- For a person taken by criminals, sequestro is standard; rapimento is a close synonym, often more general and common in everyday speech.
- In legal or financial contexts, sequestro often means court-ordered seizure of assets or property, not kidnapping.
- Common pattern: sequestro di persona for kidnapping; sequestro di beni for asset seizure. Don't omit the di phrase in formal contexts.
