Mala Blen
this Twi'lek female and her sister, Aola, ruled the trading houses of Thaere Privo many years before the Battle of Naboo. Mala was the older sister, and was viewed as the more dominant of the pair. When Riboga the Hutt established a presence on Thaere Privo, it was Mala Blen who was publicly disdainful of the Hutts, but later became one of Riboga's chief contacts on Thaere Privo. Unknown to the sisters, Riboga played them both against each other, changing his allegiance from one to the other just to watch the balance of power shift in the Thaere System. This angered the Thaereian Military as well as Aola, for both parties hated to see the Hutts gain a stronger hold on the Thaere System. Both Mala and Aola were killed shortly after Riboga fled the Cularin System, and their deaths were characterized as "untimely" by the local population.
