Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
According to the latest news Aak the toydarian slaver just reopened his infamous Club Aak, this time in the town of New Dreshdae on Rori. Apparently his earlier troubles with the law have been settled so he now can operate a business without worrying about bounty hunters.
Needless to say though that while Club Aak may be legal a number of sentients will still object to his slaving, though as the latest report of a new cargo of twi'lek slaves arriving on Rori from Ord Mantell show, disapproval won't stop him making a credit or two - or more.

Rebel raid on mining operations defeated
Date: 120611
Planet: Naboo System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
A day ago the Imperial Fleet in the local sector sent a task force to protect mining operations in the Naboo system from rebel-sponsored raiders. About 20 fighters and three gunboats made up the task force, fending off rebel attacks while the mining continued. The outnumbered rebel forces kept the pressure up but could not significantly hinder the operation despite their attacks while taking heavy losses with each wave. After two hours the last surviving rebel ships withdrew.

Explosions caused by mining attract tusken?
Date: 100611
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Farpoint Valley
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Last night several citizens reported hearing explosions in the vicinity of Farpoint Valley, Tatooine. While originally a cause of concern for several residents and visitors who may have thought they were under attack it was soon claimed that said explosions were caused by mining operations in the area.
IMC manager Kimisei Bythmi stated, when asked about the explosions, that IMC was currently not using explosives for mining operating Deep Crust Extractors instead. He did also state that he did not know what other company was currently mining in the area.
Later on a sizeable number of tuskens entered the area and attacked residents until driven off or killed. The group may have been attracted by the explosions, or retaliating for any of their gathering places or holy relics damaged or destroyed by the detonations. Past clashes with tuskens mostly originated around the oasis near Farpoint Valley.
Dr. Johda's Medical Center was operating at near-full capacity after the battle, treating wounded.

Pirate attack in Farpoint Valley?
Date: 090611
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Farpoint Valley
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
This evening there was a shootout reported in front of Jailbirds, in Farpoint Valley Tatooine. While details are not clear it involved at least two groups of armed and armored people and left several dead and wounded. Among the dead were two men wearing armor popular among several pirate and mercenary groups such as the Black Sun and Mandalorians.
It is not yet clear if this was related to reports of a break in at the local med center - apparently droids reported attempts to raid the supply of Dr. Johda's newly opened Medical Center.
Mayor Kimisei Bythmi stated that he had no knowledge of the incident or of any hurt residents and that he did not think ther ewas any ground for concerns.

Ambush in Corellia System foiled
Date: 090611
Planet: Tatooine/Corellia System/Ord Mantell System
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC)
Three days ago three freighters left Tatooine for Ord Mantell in a convoy for the Intergalactic Mining Company, transporting copper from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Shipyards in the Ord Mantell System. The convoy was led by Captain Dee'lin Sarlo in her YT-1300 "Phoenix", followed by Captain Britney's YT-2400 class light freighter "Sugar Rush" and captain Batair Highlander piloting the TTC-Tencilia, another YT-2400 class. The convoy was escorted by Ycoga Redspine in an Incom T-60 "X-Wing"
When the convoy reached the hyperspace jump point Corellia's Own in the Corellia system it was attacked by two pirates. Ycoga immediatedly attacked the raiders, taking damage but shoowing down one and keepoing the other engaged until the three freighters took it down with combined blaster fire. The convoy then continued to Ord Mantell.
IMC shares rose 1% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.

Firefight on Lok
Date: 090611
Planet: Lok
Region: Western Lok
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Travelling merchants on Lok - at least they claimed that title for themselves, and they had wares with them - witnessed a firefight in an abandoned factory dating back to the clone wars last night. While details were not known the accounts agree that the battle endured for quite some time, before first one ship, then another, left the premises. One person mentioned observing a number of explosions, and what looked like the evacuation of wounded.

Scam during the Nomad Market?
Date: 090611
Planet: Dathomir
Region: South-Eastern Dathomir
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Last night the Nomad Market took place on Dathomir, the planet of dark witches and darker skies. Despite an Imperial Blockade the market was well-frequented, and even the infamous wildlife of Dathomir was kept in check - or served as impromptu restocking opportunities for both cooks as well as tailors.
Apart from the pet shows done by UnChained Enterprises, including the hatching of two very rare Tanrays - rumored to be the first Tanrays in the galaxy born in captivity, which attracted a lot of attention there was a small scandal regarding a very high entry fee of a rather empty tent. Several people with either deep pockets, burning curiosity, or both, paid the fee only to discover an "interesting" but ultimately devoid of business opportunities interiour. It is not known if the owner of the tent managed to collect the paid fees, or fell victim to street justice - or rather market justice in this case - on the spot, but one would do well to check the pots of the witches in the near future, should any of them have entered.
