. . . . .A very interesting message to receive, given that there has been no authorization from myself to declassify any information regarding the incident at the time. This would imply active transmission of information, from a foreign power, in violation of predetermined agreements, which could be considered espionage. Very grave declarations, but that's not the issue, is it?

. . . . .The information you have received is correct in claiming that the intelligence asset was, in fact, detained, and was to be escorted out of the sovereign claims of the Republic of Liberty. From the debrief and incident reports, it would appear that a small number of ships, identifying as members of the Kempeitai Intelligence agency of Kusari, entered range with intent on engaging the Rheinland asset. That is where the reports diverge in their content, but what is certain, is that by the end of the incident, there was one critically damaged Rheinland asset, and the Kempeitai agents fled from Liberty assets. Attached is what has been authorized to be released, altered to contain only what is required.


. . . . .At this point, the report states of the disabling of the vessel from the Kempeitai engagement.

. . . . .I don't think I need to explain how serious these events are for everyone involved. A foreign intelligence, assaulted by another foreign intelligence, in the heart of sovereign Liberty space. I am certain that you have your own tasks to attend to, now that this information has been acquired, but do take note of this next statement. Your message has been interpreted as the Rhienland Military's claim to ownership of the vessel involved, and as such, the ownership of any and all charges against this vessel. The relevant parties of the Kusari state shall be held accountable for their side of the incident, as well.
