Sector 8-J

Sector 8-J was an area of Janix city on the Mid Rim planet Janix. It was situated in one of the city's districts near its Banking District. One night between 17 BBY and around 13 BBY, a group of Mandalorian and Zabrak criminals stole credit bricks and a bank transport from a tower in the Banking District. Members of Janix Civil Defense's Tactical Defense Force arrived at the tower just as the criminals departed in their stolen transport; however, the criminals managed to escape the police and head to Sector 8-J after their probe droid fired its blasters at the police cruiser. Undeterred, officer Pak—a member of the Tactical Defense Force— ordered all nearby units to converge on Sector 8-J after his police droid received reports of the criminals shuttle in the area. When officer Pak and his reinforcements arrived in Sector 8-J, they discovered the criminals transferring their stolen credits from to a Kom'rk-class fighter/transport. Police forces surrounded the criminals making the transfer and Pak emerged from his vehicle to demand their surrender. The cloaked crime lord Maul then exited the Kom'rk-class figther, activated his double-bladed lightsaber, and a fire fight broke out which quickly ended in the deaths of the police forces.
