On 18 October 2011, Israeli solider Gilad Shalit was freed after spending over five years in captivity in Gaza.

His release was part of a controversial prisoner exchange which saw more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners freed from Israeli jails.

Alex Collins talks to Israeli spy, David Meidan, who was successful in negotiations where others had failed.
