Diles Anevi was a human who served as governor of the Expansion Region during the reign of the Galactic Empire. In 10 BBY, he met with the leader of the Crimson Dawn crime syndicate, Dryden Vos, aboard the crime lord's yacht, the First Light, while it was docked in Fort Ypso on the planet Vandor.

Anevi hoped that in return he could secure from Vos financial contributions to charitable causes he cared deeply about.
During the meeting, Vos lost his temper and stabbed Anevi in the chest with a Kyuzo petar, causing him to let out a cry of pain that could be heard by party guests on the yacht's observation deck.Solo: A Star Wars Story: Expanded Edition When Vos removed the blade, the governor dropped to the floor dead.

==Behind the scenes==
Diles Anevi first appeared in the 2018 Anthology film, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and was first identified by name in the accompanying reference book Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo. The credits for the film identify Miles Richardson as the actor portraying the "Regional Governor," and the Official Guide also contains an image of Richardson in the role; however, in the film itself, the governor is clearly portrayed by a different bearded actor.
During the filming of Solo, the production staff debated how exactly Dryden Vos would dispose of Anevi. Screenwriter Jon Kasdan and others wanted to have Vos decapitate Anevi, and a version in which Anevi's head rolls across the floor was filmed, but some felt that would be too graphic for a Star Wars film, so the decapitation version of the scene was ultimately cut.
