Israel claims two Israeli Arabs were kidnapped and released by Hizbullah
2005-04-30
Israeli security sources said Thursday the Lebanese resistance group Hizbullah had infiltrated northern Israel and kidnapped two Israeli Arabs from a border village earlier this month. The two men, Mohammad Meki and Nawaf Murhej from Ghajar village, which lies on Israel's northern border with Lebanon, were allegedly kidnapped on April 7 and taken to Lebanon where they were interrogated for four days before being released on April 11. Contacted by The Daily Star, the resistance party had no comment on the issue.

The report says details of the kidnapping emerged upon the men's return, when they were taken for investigation by Israeli police and agents from the Shin Beth internal security service. The two described how they were kidnapped from their village at night and taken to Lebanon, where they were allegedly held in bad conditions and treated violently by their Lebanese interrogators. But they denied their captors had asked them to carry out security-related missions against Israel and were later released, the sources said.
