A prisoner was an individual who was captured and held in confinement by a third party.
History
During the Clone Wars, both the Galactic Republic[1] and the Confederacy of Independent Systems took prisoners.[2] Early in the Clone Wars, the Confederacy had clone troopers taken to Regent Queb's compound.[3] They also had Jedi taken to the Citadel.[2] The Republic kept their prisoners at the Naval Intelligence headquarters on Coruscant.[1]
During the Galactic Civil War, Princess Leia Organa was held prisoner by Darth Vader before she was rescued by Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca[4] assigned the designation of "Prisoner 2187."[5]
The Galactic Empire used the prisoners held in the mobile prison Accresker Jail as an expendable fighting force.[6]
