Kidnap, abduct, abscond with, steal, swipe, etc. Any way you slice it, the party took an innocent person hostage simply because she was related to someone their associate had already wronged. They tried to use a morally reprehensible act to avoid their associate having to take responsibility for a crime. Purely along D&D's Good/Evil axis, they willingly hurt and oppressed others, putting them right in line with, from the PHB, "Evil" implies hurting, oppressing, and killing others". It's an EVIL ACT. In fact, if you could assign it a specific alignment, the act would be NEUTRAL EVIL. From the PHB: "The criminal who robs and murders to get what she wants is neutral evil."
