Tuden Sal

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Tuden Sal was a male Sakiyan living on Coruscant in the decade prior to the Clone Wars. He was a restaurant owner and associate of Black Sun and other smugglers. He was a friend of Lorn Pavan, who had helped him keep his liquor license when Sal had been in a tight spot. When Pavan became involved in Trade Federation officer Hath Monchar's plot to sell details of the impending Trade Federation blockade of Naboo and knew he would not survive the ordeal, he entrusted his droid I-5YQ to Sal. Sal, who had long coveted the droid, quickly wiped I-Five's memory with the intent of reprogramming it. Before the reprogramming could occur, however, Sal was ruined financially in a hostile takeover backed by then-Senator Palpatine. Sal liquidated all of his remaining assets, including I-Five who was sold to a spice smuggler (on or before 20 BBY). Sal later met I-5YQ again, when the droid was with Jax Pavan.
