In this Sept. 1992 file photo, Abimael Guzmán, the founder and leader of the Shining Path guerrilla movement, shouts inside of a jail cell after being captured in Lima, Peru. The Peruvian government reported Saturday that Guzman died after an illness.

The former philosophy professor launched an insurgency against the Peruvian government in 1980 and presided over numerous car bombings and assassinations in the years that followed.
