Bandin Dobah's Smuggling Ring

Bandin Dobah's smuggling ring was a group of smuggling cells, with known holdings in Bandin Dobah's Hideout and Formos Spaceport. While Bandin was the leader, he had other groups, such as the Daro Blunt Gang, working on the ground in various systems to further the groups criminal goals. Bandin was known for his brutality, a trait which he expected in his various smuggler cells, earning the attention of the Galactic Empire as well as other powerful foes.

Episode 3 : As The Wheel Turns:
The FIFT first encounter Bandin's smuggling ring when they discover J9-B8, broken and dying near the Rii Jenks Cantina in the Formos Spaceport, learning that they had attacked J9-B8 and droid-napped his friend R4-W9 for the knowledge he contained regarding the Kessel Run, a highly profitable, but dangerous, smuggling lane.

The FIFT then learned of the bounties on the head of Bandin, both from the Empire as well as the Hutts, and decided to go after Bandin for themselves. This ended in conflict with a cell of Bandin's ring, the Daro Blunt Gang, who had captured R4-W9 and were the best source of information regarding Bandin's whereabouts.

After learning the location of Bandin's hideout, in an asteroid field, The FIFT made the journey to capture Bandin, with a final confrontation ending with Bandin's capture, as well as with Godon Netakka, who had joined Bandin's gang to save his own life, turning on his former boss.

Bandin's life, and the organization that pulled his smuggling cells together, ended on Sleheyron, after The FIFT turned Bandin over to Thakba Besadii Diori in order to collect the bounty on his head. Bandin was killed during gladiatorial combat during a party shortly after.
