At approximately 8pm on Friday 7 September 2007, a group of Israeli soldiers who were in black wear stopped the car of Mhawish Salamah An-Nueimat in Al Jneina neighborhood, south- east of Rafah.
Mhawish was driving home accompanied by his wife and children.
The car was stopped near the family's house.
The soldiers forced the family to leave the car and anesthetized Mhawish.
When the family cried for help, the disguised soldiers told them that they were from the Palestinian police and drove Mhawish's car fast towards the nearby Gaza International Airport.
Eyewitnesses reported that he was soon transported by a helicopter into Israel.
Al Mezan's lawyers, who were approached by the family, confirmed that he has been detained in Al Majdal (Ashkelon) prison.
