Corsair Court

[Markus_Janus]

Konbanwa honored Council.
I hope you will permit me to explain a couple of inaccuracies on the part of the accused here.
I do not believe we have submitted any half proof of any kind, our grievance is the act of the accused firing on Samura vessels, this has been proven by evidence submitted by the honorable director Marusa-san.
We felt it best to approach this distinguished body for a very good reason, that being that the accused was using heavy warship assets to disrupt our endeavors, as we believed this was frowned upon by this court, we decided to approach with this issue.

Now about the absurd claim that Samura would be doing this to hurt the image of the Corsair Nation, well I think we can all safely see how ridiculous this statement is on it's own merit.
I do not have to explain to this council the effort I personally went through to begin a formalised relationship to the Corsair people, one built on mutual trust, respect and prosperity.
We would never dream of using this incident to in any way insult the Corsair Nation and indeed look at this as a isolated incident by one captain who either had too much to drink or maybe got a little too gredy for his own good.

Yes there is a current bounty placed by a member of Samura Omotai Zaibatsu on this one lone vessel.
This bounty is not sponsored by Samura as a whole, but at the same time I do not feel any justification in banning it's existence.
The accused surely understands that every action has a reaction and that sometimes you may just hit a businessman who does not mind turning the hunter into the hunted, after all money talks as they say.

As such the bounty will stay in place at the discretion of it's creator and I refuse to negotiate this matter with the accused, if this Council is interested in this however, then as always you have my ear.

Over all Samura does not care why there was a Corsair vessel at this location, we were not initially worried until weapons fire was delivered to our vessels.
Until this time, there was no reason that any sane person could fathom for this vessel to need to perform any type of pre-emptive defense.
He was in the area of space dominated by friends and could of just as easily greeted us on his way out, maybe even of asked for some supplies to make his journey more comfortable.

With this statement I do hope that our intentions and thoughts on the incident have been presented in a clear enough manner for all.


Sayonara,
Okada Kazuya.
