I'll add a perspective from the admin team regarding this sanction and we reserve the right to change our minds.
Daumann and Kruger do not directly attack each other. As rhienland corporations they are not hostile to each other. They are not allies but they don't shoot at each other.
Our interpretation of the rumors is that they can and do pay other people, i.e. mercenaries, to harry or disrupt the other corporation's operations.
