Mohammed Maei also known as Kak Shwan (Born 1947 in Bane – Died 16 September 1980 in Sine) was a legendary commander for Komala (KZK)'s military forces known as Peshmerga. Kak Shwan was known for being one of the most prominent figures during the 24 days resistance of Sine, and he gave hope to many Kurdish residents in Sine who later joined Komala.
Early life
Kak Shwan was born in 1947 in Bane, but his family was originally from Sine. Kak Shwan never attended high school.
Allegiance with Komala
Even though Kak Shwan never attended high school, he was well aware of his people and knew that his people's (The Kurds) rights were heavily violated. Before joining Komala, he participated in many demonstrations against the Iranian Regime, and he was arrested and brought to prison by SAVAK. In the years between 1978–1979, Kak Shwan met Kak Foad who later told him about his Party, Komala. Shortly after his release from prison in 1979, he decided to join the Peshmerga forces of Komala. He later became a legendary commander who was known for being loyal to Komala as well as being both strong and brave.
Death
After being one of the strongest commanders during the 24 days resistance of Sine, Komala launched a big operation against the Iranian army in Sine on 16 September 1980, with Kak Shwan as the commander and leader of the operation. The operation ended with victory for Komala, and they damaged a big part of the Iranian Army during that operation. On 16 September 1980, during the operation, Kak Shwan got hit by an Iranian helicopter missile and lost his life in the city of Sine. Kak Shwan is still remembered in the Kurdish community as a strong, brave, and loyal commander who fought for his people. Every year on 16 September, people come out to the streets of Sine and post pictures of Kak Shwan in the city to show the regime that their commander still lives among them.
