A very strange incident happened today near planet Crete today and one of your pilots was the protagonist of the scene... or should I say the antagonist? As I was patrolling nearby I detected a VHF identified as (]c[)Neil.Strauss with a Zoner IFF flying at impulse speed towards Crete. Calculating it's path of trajectory determined it was coming from the Omega-91 jumphole, a Corsair Guard system. What it was doing there and whether it had permission to be there is beyond me. I closed in and attempted to open a communication channel but said zoner refused any form of communication. I also scanned his ship, confirmed its allegiance and found out it sustained considerable amount of damage and had nearly depleted its nanobots and batteries. No other cargo was found. He slowed down stopped in front of me. A moment later he opened fire on me and took my shield down to 50%. In response, I fired three warning shots with my turret and took down roughly 10% of his shield. While I was attempting to open another communication channel the said zoner opened full fire on me, took down my shield and started damaging my hull. His intent to kill was obvious. I took emergency evasive maneuvers and, with the help of another witnessing corsair, we shot him down in matter of seconds. I tractored his escape pod and left it drift near your Freeport in Omicron Theta. I feel this is under your jurisdiction and I expect you to investigate this situation. Looking forward to see results of your investigation.
Unfortunately, due to the very fast pace of events, I was unable to capture proof during the encounter. The only thing I have is a witness and proof of his ship's destruction.

Alka Nica,
As this pilot is a member of the Zoner Trading Consortium, I will pass this communique to them so they can deal with this matter. The matters of individual pilots of an individual member faction within the Alliance are not the sole responsibility of the Alliance as a whole.
Yet, as the small amount of evidence presented may cause some discrepancies in the way this review is processed, as it leaves it to little more than a he-said-she-said contest, I am sure the ZTC will do their best in investigating this matter and delivering all the most appropriate response and consequence.
Thanks you for your time.
Ravenor Out!

I'm really sorry such incident happened and furthermore is connected with the ZTC. That said pilot ain't a Consortian, he somehow managed to forge his transmitter. All neccessary steps to prevent that said pilot from behaving like that again are already initiated. In case we can be in assistance to repair your vessel or provide any financial compensation, please let us know.

It's good to hear that things are sorted out and the said pilot is being taken care of. I believe the case is closed on my end. It's very kind of you to offer assistance even though the pilot in question is not one of your own but, fortunately, my ship received only minor damage therefor financial compensation won't be needed. Thank you for your time and I wish the best to you and your people.
I'm here to aploigise for this matter, however I was damn late witht it...
The reason why this happened is, that some crazy friend of mine hijacked my vessel. (//also got all of my other vessels erased, which is not regarding for this theme)
The madman don't even know the common language used Sirius-wide, so I took action now, erased hes passwords for my hangarbays and I can't call him much of a friend anymore for this. (I guess you guys aren't suprised)
Actually I spent my time with getting drunk and high ever since in taverns where Snyth. Mj. is available and now after almost a year without flying any place anywhere I'm looking forward to carry on with the trading we did in the ZTC.
So he did not forged my transmitter, but he did actually stole my vessel from my hangar.
Such incident wont ever happen again.
For the third time I am deeply sorry for all the fault he did and takeing full responsebility.
Respect and peace to everyone: Proud Consortiant (hope still is) Neil Strauss
If you bargify (pilot a barge), you have to change your call-sign once a week, or you will draw such attention which kind a 16 year old spoiled young lady could'nt handle neither. (Let alone you) PS: My old trader self's note. I WANNA BE A HERO... I mean Zoner oO
