History

On 27 November 1991, the Supreme Soviet of Abkhazia decreed to abolish the Abkhazian KGB and to establish the State Security Service.[1] On 4 December 1992, the Supreme Soviet shortened its name to Security Service of Abkhazia.[2]

Until 1992, the State Security Service was led by Grigori Komoshvili. After the outbreak of the 1992–1993 war with Georgia, Komoshvili's Deputy Gennadi Berulava became the new head.[3] In early October 1993, after the war had ended, he was dismissed and succeeded by Astamur Tarba.[3][4]

On 20 November 1992, during the war, the Abkhazian border guard was established.[5]

On 5 May 1997, President Vladislav Ardzinba decreed to rename the Service back to State Security Service of Abkhazia.[2]

After a bomb attack on 13 December 1999 in Sukhumi targeting government officials, Ardzinba dismissed Astamur Tarba and replaced him with First Deputy Chairman of the State Customs Committee Raul Khajimba.[6] On 18 June 2001, Khajimba also became First Vice Premier,[7] and on 1 November he was replaced as State Security Service Head by Interior Minister Zurab Agumava.[8][9]

On 2 April 2003, Agumava was replaced by Advisor to the President on Military Matters Givi Agrba.[10]

Agrba handed in his resignation on 15 June 2004 along with Foreign Minister Sergei Shamba and First Vice Premier Astamur Tarba following the murder of opposition politician Garri Aiba.[11] Agrba's resignation was accepted by Ardzinba on 7 July and he was replaced by Mikhail Tarba.[12]
