Man "arrested" and abused by slavers in the Lucky Despot?

Date: 210809
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Eisley

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

The Lucky Despot casino in Mos Eisley saw a violent, but also mysterious incident last night. A few men were watching the local dancers when a group of armored humanoids entered, and blockaded the exit. It wasn't a robbery as it turned out though - no demands for money were made. Instead a man among the audience was singled out, accused of carrying contraband or illegal weapons - a charge that would be familiar to most of Mos Eisley's residents, should they ever face law enforcement - and proceeded to "arrest" him.

The armored men did not identify themselves nor claim to be part of the MEPD, much less Imperial officials, but according to rumors their armor was similarly colored as armor worn by a local slaving group in the past.

Once the unfortunate man was cuffed he was fitted with some restraining device, then force-marched to a backroom of the casino. A few minutes later the armored men left the Lucky Despot.

Their victim was found unconscious and wounded on the floor and was carried by two bystanders to the Mos Eisley Med Center, where he was treated. Unfortunately he seemed to be suffering from psychical trauma as well, showing signs of paranoia, and disappeared from the med center soon afterwards. His current situation or location is unknown, he seems to have gone missing.
