Special Purpose Islamic Regiment
The Special Purpose Islamic Regiment (SPIR) ((ロシア語:Исламский полк особого назначения)), also known as the al-Jihad-Fi-Sabililah Special Islamic Regiment, was a Chechen organization loosely formed by Chechen warlord Arbi Barayev in 1996. It was regarded as one of the main hostage-taking, kidnapping, and oil-smuggling groups operating in Chechnya during the lawless interwar period that followed the 1994-1996 conflict with Russia.〔 It is most notorious for its role in the October 2002 Moscow theater hostage crisis, when some 800 hostages were taken in the Russian capital;〔 by then, SPIR was headed by Movsar Barayev - the nephew of Arbi (killed in 2001) - and probably never had more than 100 fighters at any given time. It might receive some external assistance from foreign fighters.〔(Special Purpose Islamic Regiment (SPIR) - Investigative Project on Terrorism ) (From: "Chapter 8; Other Groups of Concern," Country Reports on Terrorism 2005, US Department of State, April 30, 2006.)〕
During Moscow theatre seizure, Movsar Barayev and some 40 men and women led by him (dubbed the "29th Suicide Division") that also included members of two other Chechen rebel groups, brought together by Shamil Basayev) were killed in a raid by Russian special forces units Alfa and Vympel after having been incapicated by the chemical attack that has also killed at least 129 of their hostages.〔(The Chechen Suicide Squad ), ''TIME'', Nov. 04, 2002〕 The SPIR fighters under Yunadi Turchayev, who became a deputy of Dokka Umarov, also took part in the large-scale raid on central Grozny in 2004, in which more than 100 combatants and civilians were killed.
In 2004, the United States Department of State included "The Special Purpose Islamic Regiment (a.k.a. the Islamic Special Purpose Regiment, a.k.a. the al-Jihad-Fisi-Sabililah Special Islamic Regiment, a.k.a. Islamic Regiment of Special Meaning)" on the Terrorist Exclusion List under the USA PATRIOT Act.〔(Terrorist Exclusion List - U.S. Department of State )〕
As of 2006 (when the SPIR has had at least seven commanders since it was founded), it reportedly continued to conduct limited guerrilla operations in Chechnya under the leadership of the man known only as Amir Aslan,〔 followed by Amirs Rashid and Abdul-Malik. On June 4, 2008, Alkavkaz website reported that Abdul-Malik and three of his comrades had been killed during skirmish in a forest near Grozny.〔(ALKAVKAZ CHECHAN INFORMATION - ABDUL-MALİK ŞEHİT ) (in Turkish)〕
