Ensaaf is a nonprofit organization working to end impunity and achieve justice for mass state crimes in India, with a focus on Punjab, by documenting abuses, bringing perpetrators to justice, and organizing survivors.
The Last Killing chronicles police whistleblower Satwant Singh Manak’s fight for justice for the survivors of ten victims of unlawful killings.
The statement issued by Ensaaf declaring the release of “The Last Killing” reads as follows:
Ensaaf is proud to present The Last Killing, an original documentary that chronicles police whistleblower Satwant Singh Manak’s fight for justice for the survivors of ten victims of unlawful killings. Today, May 23, marks 21 years since the Punjab Police filed false cases against Manak to punish him for standing up for human rights. Manak embodies the spirit of Chardi Kalaa and is an inspiration to us. “We are tired but we are not so tired that we give up our right. We are not going to give up our right. We have to get justice. You are not given your rights. You have to take them,” he said in the face of disappointing court hearings. On April 2, Ensaaf helped Manak file an appeal to the Supreme Court.
