What does Sendero Luminoso do?

Sendero Luminoso is the name of a Maoist guerrilla insurgent/terrorist organization in Peru. The name of the organization translates to "Shining Path" in English. Shining Path was most active in the 1980s, and the goal of the organization was to champion cultural revolutionary ideals generally associated with Communism. The organization's activity has declined in the past 20 years since the leader of the group (Abimael Guzman) was arrested and imprisoned in 1992.

What has Peru achieved in counter terrorism?

The two main Peruvian rebel groups, both leftist, are the Maoist group Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso) and the Cuban-inspired Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement (Movimiento Revolucionario Tupac Amaru). Both organizations operated most forcefully in the 1980s and early 1990s, when Peru's government fought a costly war against both insurgencies, but disproportionately the Shining Path. The U.S. State Department identifies Shining Path as a terrorist organization, but Tupac Amaru hasn't been listed as such since 1999. Shining Path had a period of dormancy in the 1990s, but the organization has since resurged, along with the Peruvian cocaine trade. Analysts say the group is small in numbers, but it could gain support in rural areas that have been neglected by the Peruvian government.On April 5, 1992, President Alberto Fujimori's administration staged a coup that led to the dissolution of Peru's Congress and the dismantling of the country's legal system. After the coup, Fujimori took over the country's media organizations and almost all its other free institutions, promising that a return to democracy would occur within the year. The accumulation of near absolute power in the hands of the president and his coterie precipitated a campaign of murder and abduction against those thought to be enemies of the state, without having any legal system capable of challenging them. Under these new laws, Lima's security forces are thought to have vastly increased a campaign of violence against Peruvians thought to be sympathetic to, or part of, Shining Path. The United States was alarmed at the turn of events and withdrew all government aid other than humanitarian assistance, but didn't permanently sever ties with Peru. On September 12, 1992, Abimael Guzmán, the head of Shining Path, was captured and imprisoned, destroying the group's chain of command. After this, the insurgency quieted down and assassinations and attacks decreased. A few years after his capture, Guzmán called for a peace deal, which caused the remaining insurgents to split into two groups-one that insisted on continuing to fight and another that wanted to put down its weapons.
