A journalist examines a statue of Abimael Guzmanat, the jailed leader of Peru's Shining Path rebels, at a police museum in Lima, November 6, 2009. Objects captured from the Shining Path movement, paintings portraying deadly bomb attacks, photographs of beheaded children and rusting homemade grenades fill the police museum dedicated to the 31,300 people killed by the rebel group. Guzman, a former philosophy professor, has equated himself in writings to Lenin, Marx, and Mao and claimed he was at the forefront of a global revolutionary movement. His followers revered him and committed hundreds of bombings and beheadings to try to create a Communist state and eradicate social inequalities in Peru.
