Shining Path's founder Abimael Guzman finally dead at the age of 86 after a hunger strike in prison and poor health.

 

His two successors (Shining Path no longer seems to exist as one group) are still alive:

 

Óscar Ramírez (1953-) Leader of Shining Path 1992-1999 after Guzman's capture, now "believes in democracy".

Comrade Artemio (1961-) Last leader of the original Shining Path 1999-2012 after Ramirez's capture. Shot multiple times, after his capture two bullets were removed from his stomach.

IS-GS (Islamic State in the Greater Sahara, a part of ISIS) founder-leader Adnan Abu Walid al-Sahraoui has been killed by french forces. IS-GS was active in Burkina Faso and neighbouring countries.

 

It split from Al-Mourabitoun that was lead by Mokhtar Belmokhtar, often called "The One-Eyed" and "The Uncatchable"

 

Al-Mourabitoun merged into Jama'at  Nasr al-Islam wal Muslimin in 2017. The leader of "JNIM" is Iyad Ag Ghaly, around 66 years old.

Still a developing story, but the terrorist attack in Kopenhagen has so far resulted in the death of film director Finn Norgaard (55) and security guard Dan Uzan (37). Controversial cartoonist Lars Vilks might have been the target but survived. But much like the Charlie Hebdo guys, he's a walking terrorist target.

 

One suspect has now been shot dead by the police:

Lars Vilks (wiki), Swedish cartoonist targeted by Islamists for his controversial drawings of the prophet Muhammad, dead at 75 following a car accident.

Picked in previous years in the DDP.

Apparently a truck crashed into a civilian police car transporting him, killing two police officers and Vilks.

Everyone's pretty sure that Shekau is dead now and Abu Musab al-Barnawi, ISWAP leader, former Boko Haram member and Boko Haram's founder Mohammed Yusuf's (1970-2006) eldest surviving son and other ISWAP leaders have apparently declared Boko Haram and all of its structures and formations dissolved.

Al-Barnawi apparently killed by Nigerian army.

Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri releases new 27 minute video where he says that "U.S. weakness" is why Ukraine "became prey" to Russia, compared India's Jammu and Kashmir to Palestine and also said all the usual stuff about the United States and the western world being weak.

Rose Dugdale's profile is rising again with a forthcoming book outing her as an inventive bomb maker, on top of other IRA activities like art theft (to raise money). Sunday paper write up today makes it clear she's currently in a care home, aged 80 (Wiki isn't clear on her birthdate but she's 81 sometime later this year). Obitable as and when and they'll doubtless be colourful obits too.

Ripudaman Singh Malik, one of two men acquitted in the 1985 Air India bombing that killed 331 people, has died. He was in his mid 70s. Malik was shot to death in Surrey, B.C. The killings amounted to the worst mass murder in Canadian history.
