Jakker-Sun was a male Ithorian senator who served the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. In 21 BBY, he was present when bounty hunter Cad Bane led a raid on the Galactic Senate and was held hostage along with other senators.
Biography[]
During the Senate hostage crisis, Jakker-Sun along with other senators was taken hostage by bounty hunter Cad Bane, who wanted to exchange their freedom for the release of Ziro Desilijic Tiure. When the Hutt crime lord was freed, Cad Bane and his team set charges in the room the senators were held in and left the building. Once safely away, Bane detonated the charges, but Jakker-Sun and the other senators were saved by the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, who managed to get them to a safe distance right before the explosion.
