Rek (enforcer)

Rek was a tall male humanoid gangster who worked as an enforcer for the Hutt crime lord Bogga in the years leading up to the Great Sith War. Rek was a member of Bogga's enforcer gang, which operated out of the Stenness Node region of the Inner Rim. In 3999 BBY, a shipment of valuable Adegan crystals, in the possession of Jedi Knight Andur Sunrider, made its way onto the Stenness Hyperspace Terminal. Determined to obtain the jewels, Bogga sent Rek, along with fellow enforcers Quanto and Gudb, to get the crystals. Rek and Quanto created a diversion by knocking over the Jedi's protocol droid, A-3DO. Sunrider, who had brought the crystals to the station, was distracted by the altercation, allowing Gudb to release his pet gorm-worm, Skritch, who fatally bit the Jedi Knight. However, Sunrider's grieving wife, Nomi, took up her fallen husband's lightsaber, surprising Rek. In self-defense, Nomi attacked the three enforcers, slaying Rek as he drew his blaster.
