History
Formation
Following the victory of the Iranian revolution in 1979, the security situation in Iranian Kurdistan had significantly deteriorated. Some Sunni leaders — such as Sheikh Mohammad Osman Serajeddin Naqshbandi, the Iraqi-born leader of the Rizgari Corps militant group, who had issued a ruling on the permissibility of fighting Iranian government forces — began to call for opposition to the revolutionary authorities on sectarian grounds. Many locals with pro-revolution views were being harassed by militant groups such as Komala and KDPI. Following this, many pro-revolution local Sunni Kurdish leaders migrated to Kermanshah, where they met with Mohammad Boroujerdi to organize the Kurdish Muslim Peshmerga under his leadership.[3][4]
Operations
Aftermath
From 1982 onward, with the defeat of a large portion of the rebel groups in Kurdistan province, the organization began to be integrated into the Basij forces.[5]
Today, they are remembered in Kurdistan with the commemoration of Sacred Defense Week every year. A large monument has been built in honor of the group's fighters in the city of Sanandaj.[6]
Militant groups continued to target former members of the group with assassination attempts in the decades following the end of the war. On 5 June 2004, Jalal Baarnameh, the retired former leader of the Marivan branch of the Kurdish Muslim Peshmerga, was ambushed and killed.[7]
