During the war Bhurra and several other thugs followed Shen to Market Row, a commercial corridor in the Port Town district of Cloud City where Shen planned to meet a group of spacers hired by her father, Arend Shen.

Once Shen met with the spacers, they aided her in losing Bhurra and the other thugs.
