IMC Convoy reaches Ord Mantell system

Date: 170608
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

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

Seven days ago, the weekly IMC Convoy from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to Nova Orion Station, Ord Mantell, repulsed another pirate attack in the Naboo system. Captain Metuki's YT-1300 "Bad Company" and Captain Auros Drayen's YT-2400 "It's Irrelevant" both reached the Ord Mantell syste safely, although their escort suffered some damage during the fight. Pilot Traynu was as competent in his N-1 Starfighter as in the past, and drove the heavy fighters of the pirate raiders - X-Wings from the reports - off.

IMC stock rose 1.5 % as a result, although analysts claim that if those pirate attacks are not letting up, then rising insurance rates will drive profits down. Stock brokers expect additional security measures taken by the company to prevent this.
