Morga Hutta Aarr, commonly known as Morga the Hutt or Morga Aarr, was a Hutt crime lord who allied himself, along with his cousin Kabbura, with the Separatists during the Clone Wars and the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. He was rumored to have stolen a priceless artifact called the Lightsaber of Kurribdan from the emperor/Sith Lord Darth Sidious just before the Battle of Endor.

Early Life[]
'Morga': “<Not guilty.>”
―Yularen speaking at Morga's trial.
During the third year of the Clone Wars, Morga, along with his cousin, allied himself with the Confederacy of Independent Systems to gain control of the planet Traka, whom Kabbura's father once ruled, and gain control over important space routes surrounding the planet. But after the fall of General Grevious and Count Dooku, Morga was arrested by Republic forces and taken to a prison on Coruscant. During Order 66, all clone commanders and troopers were ordered to kill all Jedi, so when Order 66 was carried out at the prison, Morga was set free by clones.
Years later, during the Galactic Civil War, Morga allied himself with the Galactic Empire and helped fight the Rebels. A major battle that his forces fought in was the Battle of Yavin IV. But shortly before the Battle of Endor, Morga had a change of heart and secretly allied himself with the Rebel Alliance, gaining more power, and had stolen Darth Sidious's Lightsaber of Korriban, of which was never found by Imperial forces and Morga was set free after the trial and went into hiding until the Empire was defeated.
Morga showed up years later to represent the Hutta kajidic on the Hutt Council along with Trugo, Aruk, Iruba, and Tabba.

You'll regret that you betrayed me Morga!
—Porka Tamson just about to push Morga into a tank of Karkarodon sharks.
In 150 ABY, Morga allied himself with Porka Tamson of the Karkarodons but later betrayed him by framing him for the murder of King Riff Ruson. In return, Tamson pushed Morga into a tank of Karkarodon sharks, where Morga was bitten apart into pieces one-by-one.
