Good evening,
Earlier today I embarked with Agt. Saturn of the ESRD to conduct a patrol of the Bering system given the increased piracy now that Freeport 2 has been abandoned by the Zoners. We came across an individual by the name of "Taipei", it was a Junker armoured transport. He claimed that we had no right to be in Bering (despite our treaty with Rheinland stating otherwise) and ordered us to pay a fine of 1 million credits. As our lives were being threatened, Saturn and I began to engage the Junker.
Eventually we damaged the Junker enough that he agreed to surrender. As I was reading to him his rights, he "claimed" that Agt. Saturn open fired at him again while subtly moving into Rheinland's half of the Bering system and subsequently claiming that we had no right to enforce Liberty's laws on Rheinland's space. I collected all the evidence I could to show the Rheinlander's the nature of this individual and how he had deliberately manipulated the situation to endanger Rheinland space. As he refused to cooperate and constantly interrupted us while we attempted to read him his rights, Agt. Saturn and I agreed to nullify him. Unfortunately, before we could do so, Freeport 1 granted him docking rights.
