Count Lesap attacked

Planet: Naboo
Region: Theed

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

Count Yyroe Lesap, of Theed, was attacked and wounded seriously enough to require hospitalisation three days ago. While he was able to present his famous water gardens –the only ones of that scale built in a yacht known so far – to GNA, he was still visibly affected by his wounds.

Although the count did not comment on the identity or even details of the attack, informed sources told us that he lost a finger in the incident. Speculation regarding the motive of this crime has risen. Some think it might be related to the count’s recent trip to Tatooine, a planet known for its criminal organisations. Others suspect a tie to the recent murder of Count Laco League. And some fringe elements of Naboo’s society claim this was a murder attempt on part of the Queen’s Court, in order to cover up a conspiracy of some sort.
