The sister of jailed Gaza electical engineer Dirar Abu-Sisi said Friday that the main reason her brother was abducted by the Mossad Israeli intelligence agency in the Ukraine last month was because he had enabled the Gaza power station to run on Egyptian fuel rather than Israeli fuel.

Interviewed by the Palestinian Authority's Ma'an news agency, the sister said that Abu-Sisi managed the plant before the Hamas takeover. She said her brother knows nothing about abducted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit and does not belong to any faction, including Hamas.
