Lathe

Lathe was a Kajain'sa'Nikto male who worked in the criminal empire of the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure. A guard who worked in Jabba's Palace on the planet Tatooine, he was part of a group that traveled on a Bantha-II cargo skiff to the Great Pit of Carkoon in order to watch the execution of three of the Hutt's prisoners.

The Jedi Luke Skywalker, one of the prisoners, managed to arm himself with a lightsaber and begun attacking his captors when they tried to push into the maw of the sarlacc that dwelt in the pit. After Skywalker defeated all of the guards on the skiff he had been traveling on, he boarded the skiff carrying Lathe as the guards onboard began shooting at the Jedi. Skywalker then killed the guards on the second skiff, including Lathe, either with his lightsaber or by knocking them overboard to be eaten by the sarlacc.
