Mountaintop smugglers

"They're called Mountaintop smugglers. Their leader is Janelle. You'll have to go fight them to get the ring back. And if you win, maybe I won't have to pay any of the rest of what I owe them."

- Herman Pate to a spacer

The Mountaintop smugglers were a criminal organization in operation during the time of the Galactic Civil War. Sometime following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, they were led by a Human woman by the name of Janelle, and operated a camp in the Gallo Mountains on the Mid Rim world of Naboo, a short distance east of the city of Dee'ja Peak. The organization primarily consisted of smugglers and spice runners. A spacer dispatched by Herman Pate killed Janelle and at least twenty-three other members at their camp.
