The [[Operation Victoria|capture]] of Shining Path leader [[Abimael Guzmán]] in 1992 led to the eventual splintering of the group into several factions,<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":5" /> referred to by the [[Peruvian government]] as '''Shining Path remnants''' ({{langx|es|remanentes de Sendero Luminoso}}). Of these, the [[Militarized Communist Party of Peru]] (MPCP) is considered the group's main successor, founded in 1999 by brothers Víctor and Jorge Quispe Palomino after the collapse of ''Sendero Rojo'', the faction that had rejected Guzmán's peace treaty. Also active is a faction in the [[Mantaro Valley]] since 2001.
