Kushukh

Kushukh was the captain of the palace guards for Pitkhanas, king of Kussara. The recently-promoted General Tushratta, who was planning a coup d'etat against the king, recognized Kushukh as a stumbling block, and planned to get him out of the way by transferring him to the Maruwasian front. As this was technically within the letter of the king's recent orders for guarding the realm, it would not arouse suspicion. He planned to tell Kushukh that the king had said noone else could do the job as well, and was sure that once Tushratta was on the throne, Kushukh would readily transfer his allegiance to him.
