COMM ID:Captain Jane Hartman TARGET ID: Liberty Forces Reporting Centre SUBJECT:Cargo Interdiction ENCRYPTION:Moderate PRIORITY:High
Good Evening All,
Commander Wicks and I were successful in intercepting a black market munitions shipment at the New York jumpgate in California earlier today. Comms flagged the offending vessels as a pair of Junker ships, one Bulldog-class fighter [Calteg: Captain Unknown] and a Pilgrim-class liner [.:j:.Golden_Goose: Captain Rico Valesquez, Junker Congress].
Bothvessels jumped in-system with full holds of untagged weapons. Golden Goose jettisoned and destroyed the cargo almost immediately on gate exit, presumably to prevent its detection. Commander Wicks intercepted and dealt with Calteg, escorting the ship from the system. Valesquez payed his five million credit fine and moved on, pending further investigation.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of how little regard the Congress appears to have for the laws of Liberty. Fleet Admiral Baker's orders regarding the Junker's Congress remain in effect, and any personnel that have not familiarized themselves with them are advised to do so.
