In 1990, Mumtaz Dughmush was a member of the Palestine PSO lead by Mohammed Dahlan.[1]
Following the 2006 Palestinian legislative elections in 2006, Dughmush, whose militia was now functioning independently, allied with the PRC and Hamas’s Qassam Brigades to seize Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. However, he went against the Islamic factions' control by abducting two journalists from Fox News and was later reported to have proposed the assistance of several hundred fighters to Fatah.[1]
