306.24 // Political Crash Raises Eyebrows

Just in, reports coming from Alzoc III state that a Imperial Shuttle crashed last night as it was following a plotted course leading to it’s exit of the atmosphere, the crash apparently killing all who were on board.

Alzoc’s Chief Of Security Ikto Lón made a statement in the early hours of the morning;

“We can confirm that a Shuttle carrying Imperial personnel and convicted prisoners, cleared for transfer of custody to the Imperials, crashed into an isolated area in among the peaks of the Alzoc mountains. Investigations are on going as to the cause of the crash, but we are working diligently to get answers as to what happened. We can confirm that one survivor was found, through the dedicated and unselfish work of the Jedi Order, though sadly the man later succumbed to his injuries whilst receiving treatment.

I would like to extend my personal thanks to the Jedi in question, for their quick reactions to the discovery and attempted rescue, and offer my sincere condolences to the families effected by this tragedy.”

While we wait on the official reports from the investigations, it is understood that the Alzoc Security Forces have allowed the Imperials to conduct their own into the incident and have extended an invitation for them to travel to meet with the team based on Alzoc that are leading the investigation into the crash.

Not much is being said by the Jedi Order at this time, with regards as to how they executed this apparent rescue attempt. Though the lingering question from the public is, did they do everything they could  to rescue the stranded Imperial personnel and their passengers?

We will bring you more as the investigations continue…

306.21 // Girl Kidnapped In Public By Jedi

Breaking news from Svivren, that a public kidnapping has taken place at rougly 0339GST today. Very little detail is available at this time, but witnesses say that an older man was holding onto a relatively young girl whilst yelling and acting aggressively towards other members of the public pleading with him to let the girl go.

Now, this is yet to be confirmed, but it is reported at one point the man was waving what can only be described as a Lightsaber, the symbolic weapon of the Jedi Order. However, authorities who have now cordoned off the area have begun questioning the witnesses and looking for leads as to the whereabouts of the two.

The Jedi Order has yet to comment, but we will bring you more on this as it develops…

306.19 // An Unsolved Robbery On Corellia?

News from Corellia, reports of a robbery in one of the largest branches in Crescent City has come to light under the most mysterious of circumstances. It is said that like all similar crimes of this nature, large amounts of credits have been taken and, while hostages were taken whilst inside the bank, all remained relatively unharmed as CorSec forced their way inside.

However, it was what they discovered that made this particular case the unsolved mystery that it is now regarded as. All of the would be robbers were found inside the building, sitting in an unlocked room in silence until approached by CorSec officials. Sources also indicate that pictures were taken of the security fields around the banks state of the art vault. Word has it that many of the parts were melted off of the walls at certain points which caused the vault to buckle and peel off.

The security footage was also destroyed.

Not much more is being said, but whispers inside CorSec say that the men being held under suspicion of the robbery do not seem like the type of men capable of said crime.

We will bring you more on this as the investigations continue…

306.18 // Decapitated Body Found In Basement

This just in, appeals are being made to the public of Eriadu after the decapitated body of a man was found hidden in the basement of his home. The body was found when concerned relatives, who had not heard from him for some time, raised the alarm regarding his apparent disappearance.

Judlin Yusk, 35, was a pilot for a company which is known for the transport of commercial goods using many of trade routes which cross Eriadu, routes such as the Rimma Trade Route, the Hydian Way, the Lipsec Run, and the Yankirk Route. Work colleagues said Judlin was a friendly character, usually in good spirits and enthusiastic about his work, being a keen and hard working pilot. His body was found hidden in amongst house hold items and furniture stored in the basement, his head severed from his body. Not much else is known about the state of Judlin’s body, but sources have indicated that the authorities are curious with regards to the apparent lack of blood found at the crime scene, remarking that it seems the head was surgically removed from the torso using tools and in a professional like manner.

It is said that the relatives believe that Judlin had begun dating a woman shortly before his disappearance and the local authorities are said to be very keen in speaking with her. At this time, there are no details as to who this woman is and the authorities are appealing for any witnesses to come forward with any information relating to Judlin or this mysterious woman.

306.16 // Borders Decided Upon By Both The Republic And The Empire

Cheering erupted across both Coruscant and Bastion today as talks between both Chief of State Malucia and Emperor Irattn Fel drew to a close. With the close of these talks the borders between the two powers have been finalised and both states have formally agreed to the boundaries of both their own authority and the authority of their neighbour. Present at the talks were not only the Chief of State and the Emperor themselves but representatives from the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine, officially serving as ‘impartial mediators’ to the proceedings.

Marginal, limited access was also granted to Imperial Fleet and Army personnel in the Raioballo Sector as a response to concerns voiced by the Imperial Moff High Council over its people still residing on Dantooine. While the sector is not officially a ‘buffer zone’ between the two powers and the sector is still a staunch supporter of the Republic, the Empire has been given leeway to police and protect its own citizens residing there, within the bounds of Republic law.

While formal trade laws and agreements have yet to be decided on by both states, we can all rest easy now with the assurance that the previously looming prospect of war no longer appears to be an issue.
