Niru

Niru was a Cantrosian female and leader of a faction loyal to the Rebel Alliance based on a planet in the Cantros system. In 4 ABY, Niru and her followers were involved in a destructive conflict with a rival group they thought were loyal to the Galactic Empire. During the fighting, Niru and her faction captured Rebel heroes Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, and fellow Cantrosian Sami, believing them to be Imperial agents. After a brief altercation, Niru was made aware that one of her faction's members, Durne, had been manipulating events and setting both groups against each other. After Durne was detained, Niru and her team recognized their Rebel heroes and made amends with those she had taken to be the enemy.
