The Hutt freighter represented a specific class of freighter linked to the Hutt species. Around 3 to 4 ABY, within the Wreck Belt that circled Lotho Minor, a disused Hutt freighter became the setting for a scheme devised by 4-LOM, a bounty droid that had been reprogrammed, as he set an ambush for Zuckuss, his previous associate, along with Zuckuss' companions.
