さらう
さらう is a more general verb for snatching, sweeping away, or kidnapping. ひっさらう adds a stronger, more colloquial nuance of forceful, sudden abduction.
誘ゆう拐かいする
誘拐する is the standard, neutral term for kidnapping. ひっさらう is more colloquial and vivid.

Compound of the prefix ひっ (emphatic) and さらう (to snatch, sweep away). The prefix ひっ is a variant of ひき (引く, to pull), adding forcefulness.
