Khuteb, situated within the Outer Rim Territories' Tion Hegemony, was a remote and underdeveloped colonial outpost; functional sanitation facilities were an uncommon sight. During 3 ABY, Everi Chalis, a one-time Imperial governor, inquired of Hazram Namir, the Rebel Alliance's First Sergeant, whether his dialect indicated origins in a Tion Hegemony backwater such as Khuteb or perhaps Promencius Four. The First Sergeant responded by stating his origin was a Tionese world eventually identified by Chalis as Crucival.
Alexander Freed's 2015 novel, Battlefront: Twilight Company, included a reference to Khuteb.
