Sipah-e-Sahaba/Pakistan (SSP) is a religiously-motivated terrorist organization operating in Pakistan.  SSP, a Sunni sectarian group, believes that Pakistan's Shia population possesses too much power and influence and that Pakistan should be governed as a Sunni state.  Shias make up approximately 20% of Pakistan's population.  Conversely, Pakistan's Sunni population is equal to 80% of the country's overall populace.  In the mid-1980s, SSP broke off from Jamiatul Ulema-e-Islam (JUI), Pakistan's main Sunni organization in the Deobandi school.  SSP was formed in response to Shia militant groups who were targeting Sunnis in Pakistan's Punjab region.  The increased extremism of the Shia militant groups was connected to the 1979 Iranian Revolution. <P><br /><br />SSP expressly strives to maintain a political role through it seat on Punjab's coalition government, various political electioneering, and through contesting of disputed election results.  Despites its political role, SSP members have murdered of hundreds of Shia Muslims.  SSP murders prominent Shias through targeted assassinations.  In addition, the group has indiscriminately killed Shias, including attacks on Shia worshippers in mosques.  Despite their terrorist actions, SSP has attempted to frame itself as a legitimate political group, occasionally going as far as denials of its terrorist activities.

Sipah-e-Sahaba/Pakistan (SSP) was declared a terrorist organization by Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf on January 12, 2002.  Following the designation, SSP changed its name to Millat-e-Islamia/Pakistan.  After the name change, President Musharraf re-designated the terrorist group in September 2003.
