The Mahir &#199;ayan Suicide Group has not reappeared since the March 1975 bomb attack. It is unlikely that the group was ever a legitimate terrorist organization, though it is possible that the group name was a front used by members of another terrorist group.

In all likelihood, Mano Blanca was never an active terrorist organization. The Mano Blanca death squad has been defunct since the 1980s.

Manuel Rodriguez Patriotic Front - Dissidents (FPMR-D)

In 1983, the Chilean Communist Party, a political organization, created an armed wing to carry out terrorist attacks against the ruling Chilean government.  The newly formed terrorist group was called the Manuel Rodriguez Patriotic Front.  The Manuel Rodriguez Patriotic Front, also known by its Spanish acronym FPMR, was formed with the express goal of overthrowing the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet.  In September 1986, the FPMR led a full-front assault on a Pinochet motorcade.  While the assassination attempt failed, five of Pinochet's guards were killed.  <P> At its height, the FPMR was estimated to have between 500 and 1,000 members.  However, the original FPMR has ceased to exist.  The fall of Pinochet's regime and a return to democracy in 1989 essentially resolved the group's goal of removing Pinochet.  The FPMR's political partner, the Chilean Communist Party, debated the legitimacy of sponsoring a terrorist organization in a post-Pinochet Chile.  Out of the debate emerged two factions of the FPMR, the FPMR Party and the FPMR-Dissidents.  The FPMR Party put down its arms, but the FPMR-D continued to engage in terrorism.

The FPMR-D justified their continuation of terrorism as a protest of the lack of prosecution against members of the Pinochet administration.  In addition, the FPMR-Dissidents strove to discredit the Chilean Armed Forces.  Following multiple arrests of FPMR-D's leaders in the 1990s, the group is no longer an active terrorist threat.
