1st Imperial Marine Expeditionary Force receiving orders for Tatooine?

Date: 110909
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Eisley

Story: Originally by the Imperial Holonet

Mos Eisley Cantina has long been a haven for all sorts in the galaxy. Criminals of all types tend to do as they please, without the watchful eye of the Empire. Recently, several personnel reported to the Cantina at the request of one of their officers who witnessed an armored figure harassing and threatening a dancer. Though the 1st Imperial Marine Expeditionary Force command based off of Rori refuses to discuss specifics of the situation, reports indicate that individuals in the Cantina stepped up to assist the aggressor as well as the small Imperial contigent, which was less than a squad.

Lt. General Senshi of the 1st IMEF did give the following statement on the issue:
"Though the end result was not exactly as would be preferred, it is heartening to see others in the galaxy showing their support in such matters. This has shown an indicator that citizens of Tatooine are growing tired of the criminal activity on the planet. All reports and rumours are being investigated, and until all evidence is either confirmed or disproved, no official statements will be given on the particulars of the incident."

Meanwhile, another member of the Imperial military gave an unofficial, anonymous statement:
"Well, it seems three Imperials were seriously injured, and it's not certain what happened to the people on the other side, or how many there were. But command's not happy about this, at all. Rumour has it that General Vellan and Lt. General Senshi are pushing to get troops permanently assigned to Tatooine, and working with other units already stationed there to start cleaning things up."

What will come to pass? Only time will tell. But it has become evident in recent weeks that the Empire is taking more of an interest in Tatooine.
