Mu'shan

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

Mu'shan was the Imperial Commander of the planet Helmabad.[1]

During Mu'shan's rule, there was a civil uprising that descended into outright war, with over three quarters of the planet's population bent on overthrowing Mu'shan. The Avenging Sons Third Company, led by Captain Gessart, were amongst the Imperial forces that came to Mu'shan's aid trying to preserve Imperial rule on Helmabad.[1]

Gessart, however, faced with the prospect of him and all of the Space Marines under his command dying a pointless death for the sake of a corrupt government on a backwater world, decided instead to reject the Imperium and abandon Helmabad to its fate. He forged a deal with the insurrectionist forces: the remaining Marines would open the entrance to Mu'shan's underground bunker and leave him to the rebels in exchange for safe passage offworld. Mu'shan was captured and publicly executed by the rebels.[1]
