Kumpulan Mujahidin Malaysia (KMM) is an Islamic group based in Malaysia, specifically in the Malaysian states of Perak, Johor, Kedah, Selangor, Terengganu and Kelantan, as well as the federal territory of Wilayah Persukutuan.  KMM is dedicated to overthrowing the current Malaysian government and then creating an Islamic state in its place.  The group, however, does not limit its planned Islamic state to Malaysia, but also aims to include Indonesia and the southern Philippines, thus creating a pan-Southeast Asian Islamic state. <P><br /><br />Many of KMM's members have trained in terrorist camps in Afghanistan, and certain members fought in the Soviet-Afghan war.  KMM has forged ties with other extremist Islamic groups in the region, including Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) and Laskar Jihad.  Jemaah Islamiyah's leaders Abu Bakar Bashir and Riduan bin Isomoddin, aka Hambali, allegedly advise and assist KMM leaders.

The Malaysian government, utilizing the Internal Security Act (ISA), has detained dozens of KMM members.  Also through the ISA, KMM's alleged leader is currently being held by the Malaysian government. KMM members have allegedly been involved in assassinations, bombings, robberies, and planning terrorist attacks on foreigners.  Due to KMM's alliance with Indonesian terrorist groups, KMM members have also been involved in terrorist attacks against Christians in Indonesia.
