Tev Aden was a male who served as New Republic Ambassador Dictio L'varren's aide on Indu San. He was murdered by Council Authority Officer Kaleb Darme in an attempt to frame the New Republic and bring the Galactic Empire back to the Indu San system. Galactic News Network reporter Kella Rand recorded Darme on her hovercam as he claimed to shoot Aden as a last resort, and then "discovered" a detonator on his dead body—in evidence planted by Darme against the New Republic.
