Following a petition filed by the Association of Civil Rights in Israel, a Magistrate's Court partially removed a publication ban on Sunday, and confirmed that Dirar Abu Sisi, a Palestinian engineer believed to have been abducted from the Ukraine by Mossad agents in late February, is currently in Israel. Abu Sisi is the manager of the only power plant in the Gaza Strip. He is not known to have any direct ties with Hamas or other terrorist organizations, although it is likely that his senior position was the result of political affiliation. In its petition, argued before the court last Thursday, the Association for Civil Rights in Israel argued that the public had a right to know about the actions of the security forces and said that "it is inconceivable that the authorities in a democratic country be able to secretly arrest people and 'vanish' them from the public eye."
