"We need reinforcements in here! Now!"

- A Coruscant Guard trooper during the prison riot.

A riot occurred at the Republic Judiciary Central Detention Center during the Clone Wars. It was instigated by the bounty hunter Cad Bane to provide a cover for his and Moraldo Eval's escape. The riot began when Bane had a young Boba Fett confront Rako Hardeen demanding Hardeen apologize to him for killing Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and depriving Fett of the bounty. Unknown to everyone, Hardeen was Kenobi in an undercover disguise. In the confusion that followed, Eval, Bane and "Hardeen" escaped in a Coruscant police speeder.
