Gela Yeens was an ill-tempered smuggler who earned credits by helping Jabba Desilijic Tiure collect his debts. Well respected for his uncanny anticipation in battle, Yeens was searching for Debnoli on Tatooine.[2] Later, he accompanied Jabba the Hutt, in the company of Boba Fett, Boelo, another human and a trio of Rodians to Docking Bay 94. He and his fellow henchmen stood guard as Jabba confronted Han Solo about his debt.
