Zhug brothers

The Zhug brothers were a group of Duros bounty hunters led by Azanti and Dezanti Zhug, consisting of hundreds of individuals bound together by their shared cause—taking control the planet Duro. This "family," as they considered themselves, was cast out from the Duro after committing violent acts against a politically-connected rival family. After settling on the moon Nar Shaddaa, the Zhug brothers started earning credits by collecting bounties. They plotted to eventually take over their former homeworld of Duro.

During the Dark Wars in 3951 BBY, when local Exchange crime lord G0-T0 placed a bounty on the former Jedi Knight Meetra Surik—known as the Jedi Exile—the Zhug brothers were eager to pursue the Jedi, a task that was eventually devastating to them. When Surik and her companions arrived on Nar Shaddaa, G0-T0 instructed the bounty hunters not to touch her while she was on the moon. After the Exile was trapped and imprisoned by G0-T0's forces, the hunters considered the truce finished and began their hunt for her. Three of the Zhug brothers, including their leader Azanti Zhug, pursued Surik's companions on the landing pad of their freighter, the Ebon Hawk, and all three Zhugs were killed during an exchange of fire. Soon after, eight Zhug brothers attacked the Jedi in the Visionary, where G0-T0 had brought her, with a similar outcome. Eventually, another Zhug leader, Dezanti Zhug, followed Surik to Onderon's moon, Dxun, where they fought for the last time, leading to the death of the three Zhug brothers there.
