Assassination of Gorst

Canon Linked from 7 articles

In 3 BBY, the Axis network dispatched Cassian Jeron Andor and Bix Caleen to assassinate Imperial doctor Gorst, whom they had learned was having his interrogation methods extended into a full program by Imperial Intelligence, convincing the Emperor he was too valuable to be left as a one-man Imperial Security Bureau asset.

With Gorst himself on Coruscant for the work, the Imperial Navy donated a facility on Coruscant to the ISB for the training, and Major Lio Partagaz assigned the work on the program to ISB Supervisors Avril Heert and Lonni Jung, who was, unknown to all, an undercover agent for the Axis network. The network subsequently dispatched Caleen and Andor—who were living undercover on Corsucant—to take out Gorst. Gorst entered the interrogation room and was surprised by Bix, who strapped him to the same torture device she was strapped on two years prior. Not long after, Cassian destroyed his office with explosives.
