Peru’s military has captured the last historic leader of the once feared Shining Path guerrillas, who was badly wounded in an apparent battle with security forces, Defence minister Alberto Otarola said Sunday. The three-decade war (1970-2000) against the Maoist Shining Path and other groups left over 70,000 dead in Peru according to a joint national reconciliation commission. AFP PHOTO/CRIS BOURONCLE
