We're getting into the weeds of a circumstance that didn't happen - you weren't tagged, and if you had suddenly run off between encounters to tag your months-old untagged ship just to FR1 an indie, that would also be extremely wack in itself. You witnessed a potential rule violation, and you broke ID lines to solve it rather than taking it to a VR like a staff member should.
Unless either of you have some new exculpatory evidence to bring up, the ban stands and the discussion has run its course.
