The Syndicat was a criminal organization that controlled the planet Phindar during the days of the Galactic Republic.
Phindians that objected to the Syndicat's rule were subjected to a memory wipe, similar to the process used on droids. Moreover, the Syndicat was in league with Prince Beju, a powerful young man from Gala. Beju and the Syndicat planned on cutting Gala's bacta supply and manipulate the region so that the Syndicat and Beju would look like heroes when they reinstated the bacta trade.
The Syndicat was successfully stopped by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn, and Republic rule was reinstated on the planet. However, Beju still proceeded with the Gala operation on his own.
