Unidentified criminal gang

A gang of criminals was active during the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, and they sought revenge against the combat medic Archiban Kimble when he scammed the group out of a large sum of credits in exchange for a shipment of spice that he never delivered.

History
The gang of criminals was active during the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, during which they encountered the combat medic and adventurer Archiban Kimble. "Doc Operator", as they knew him, offered the gang a shipment of valuable spice but scammed the group out of a large sum of credits when he failed to deliver the spice. Doc used the stolen money to set up a refugee hospital for his fiancé Prudy, though he later ended their engagement, and the gang eventually tracked down their stolen credits in 3,642 BBY. The gang held Prudy hostage and attempted to blackmail Doc into delivering either the spice or the credits, and Doc's attempt to go undercover for the Republic Customs Office went sour when Doc was forced to replace Prudy as the gang's hostage. Fortunately for Doc, Republic hostage negotiators were eventually able to secure Doc's release.

Behind the scenes
This gang first appeared in the 2011 BioWare video game Star Wars: The Old Republic, where they are mentioned in the conversation "Best Intentions" with the Jedi Knight companion Doc. The conversation was originally intended as a full mission where the player would confront the gang's leader Cazzush on Alderaan with Doc, but that version was cut from the game and replaced with the situation involving Republic Customs.
