IRRK Freelance: Omni-Pol shoots down own transport leaving many dead
September 3rd, 29488
Omni-Pol shot down one of their own transports carrying members from Omni-Pol Internal Services, who were en-route to Omni-1 to give evidence to members of Omni-Security.
IRRK received notification from one Officer 'Zarte' Hemmeld that Omni-Pol Internal Services had an announcement to make after he and his colleagues had delivered evidence to other members of Omni-Security. OP-IS was previously responsible for monitoring procedures and investigating internal affairs within Omni-Pol. However, following CEO Eva Pourais' restructure of Omni-Tek Rubi-Ka, the sub-department is now obsolete and has been transferred into Omni-Tek Internal Operations.
Officer Hemmeld and his colleagues were the last remaining in OP-IS, scheduled to be transferred on completion of their current investigation, which has been rumored to concern Omni-Pol's General of Operations; Cora Geers.
The transport was entering final approach to Omni-1 airspace when it was shot down by Omni-Pol forces under General Geers' command. Witnesses report that a couple of officers survived the crash and sent a distress signal. However, emergency responders were turned away by Omni-Pol, but not before they saw officers firing upon the survivors.
Omni-Pol's General Geers made this response following the incident:
"I can confirm that Omni-Pol activated defensive measures and denied an invading shuttle access to Omni-1 airspace. Omni-Pol had confirmed reports that the shuttle had been overtaken by terrorists and was holding officers from Internal Services hostage.
A decision was made to deny emergency response access to the crash to prevent more hostages being taken. Our officers then secured the crash-site and terminated the surviving clan members.
I must unfortunately report that what has since been identified as a clan virus prevented our officers from entering the reclaim system, sadly causing permanent death and destroying their evidence."
