Rawi Fuad Sultani, 23, ADMITTED he met a Hezbollah activist in Morocco one year ago and told him he had information on Ashkenazi, who worked out at the same gym, the prime minister’s office said in a statement.

He said he had remained in contact with the man through e-mail and social networking site Facebook after returning to Israel, it added.

In December 2008, Sultani flew to Poland where he gave another Hezbollah member information he had collected on Ashkenazi and discussed ways in which he could be attacked.

“Hezbollah is continuing in its efforts to recruit Israelis to perpetrate Terrorist missions,” the statement said.....”
