Cukë Halili (1892-1977) was an Albanian kachak fighter from Stankaj of Rugova. The father of Cukë Halili was killed by Montenegrins in a village of Istog (called Burim today in Albanian). Cukë Halili fought along side his brother Rud Halili and even with Bajram Curri in Junik. He also fought together with Zhuk Haxhia and Ker Sadria. Somewhere in the Rugova Gorge (Gryka e Rugoves), Cukë Halili is said to have killed many Serbian and Montenegrin troops. A book about the history of Cukë Halili was burned by the Serbian invaders in 1999.
