Meeko Ghintee Meeko Ghintee was a male Muttani criminal who was operating during the time of the Invasion of Naboo . A known cheat , Meeko made his dishonest living in the underworld of beast pit fighting games , such as those held on Outland Transit Station . Biography . Meeko Ghintee was not above rigging his fighting beasts with remote devices , to control his prize creatures from the rafters of the fighting arena . Meeko often turned the odds in his favor thanks to this underhand tactic , though he had been frequently incarcerated for such devious tricks . Nevertheless , Meeko never learned and , upon release , doggedly returned to the pit fighting arenas to try his hand once more . Following the Invasion of Naboo , Meeko was wanted by the Republic Correctional Authority , for a number of charges including murder , assault and larceny , and became one of the high - priority criminals of the time . Ghintee was captured and given a life sentence at the prison facility on Oovo IV , but managed to escape , obtaining the " Longshot " in the process . However , Meeko was not as free as he would have liked , since Jango Fett tracked the criminal to Outland Station . Meeko initially evaded the bounty hunter by pitting his remote - controlled borhek beast against Fett , and fled into the streets . Meeko commandeered a speeder , but crashed it and fled on foot . Eventually , he was was pursued to the docking bay by Jango Fett , where he attempted to finally rid himself of the bounty hunter by using his ship ' s onboard weapon systems against him . Fett proved too skilled , however , and severely damaged the " Longshot " before finally apprehending Meeko and promptly collected his reward for the alien rogue . Meeko was sent back to Desolation Alley , with a second life sentence added to his existing one . However , when Jango Fett himself arrived on Oovo IV while tracking down Komari Vosa , Meeko saw his chance to escape . Ghintee signed on to a work crew mining ore on the planetoid ' s rocky surface , and managed to flee the prison — and Fett — in a mining vehicle , only for Fett himself to stumble upon them while seeking his own way out . Scared witless , Meeko attempted to shoot Fett down with a rotary blaster cannon , but the bounty hunter once again proved too skilled for the criminal , and killed Meeko . Ironically , Meeko had a considerable bounty on his head at the time ( 10 , 000 Republic Credits ) , which Fett promptly collected . Even more ironically , the bounty was posted by the owner of the champion borhek killed by Meeko ' s cheating in an Outland Station beast pit fight . Behind the scenes .
