Sleheyron was a celestial body[5] located in the Sleheyron system in Hutt Space, in grid square S-10 on the Standard Galactic Grid.[2] It sat at the junction[6] of the Pabol Sleheyron[4] and Pabol Hutta[3] hyperspace routes, which joined it to Kintan to the north, Nimban to the west, Rion to the east and Nal Hutta to the south.[6]

Controlled by the Hutt Clan,[5] it was the homeworld of Hutt crime lord Ziro,[7] who was covered in colorful tattoos indicating his connection to Sleheyron.[5]
