Today 4:36pm Babylonia
Authorities apprehended General Dorian Hadilla today outside the the remains of the Tachbian embassy on charges of conspiracy to assassinate the president, crimes against the nation, and regional war crimes.
As he was arrested, a legion of his bodyguards opened fire on the Xilian Special Forces conducting the arrest. After an hour, the violence subsided with two members of the XSF dead, three wounded, and fifteen of Hadilla's bodyguards killed, and twenty-nine wounded.
Hadilla states that he 'will not allow such a travesty to commence' and has requested an internation lawyer, should one take up his case. While detained, he has appointed Commander Adonis Lauir as his successor until his charges are cleared. Commander Lauir declines comment on the situation.
Lilith Roma, sister of deceased President Aidan, wife of Minister Xian Roma, and chief officer of Xile's Law Department issued the charge for Hadilla's arrest. She has issued a statement looking to the regional council to try the General, and awaits a response.
She has also declared Abattoir Prime Minister Aron Lavinsky a fugitive and seeks assistance in his arrest. In Xile he is charged with conspiracy to assassinate President Cannonite.
Her husband, Minister of Domestic Affairs, has asked for an emergency meeting of the Xilian Senate to begin the process of electing a new leader. The Senate will convene sometime within the next few days.
(OOC: If anyone would like to act as Hadilla's attorney or prosecuting attorney, please step forward and I will pm you details of the case. I plan for the region to make a verdict of his innocence or guilt of the charges.)

"Hahaha...they're charging me with what?"
"Conspiracy to Assissinate the President sir."
"Right right, well, it's not as if I made secret of it. Dorian and myself have been dealing for along time now. What do you suppose I do Herring?"
The conference room sat empty, alone from all except two individuals, the Prime Minister and his most trusted advisor. The conversation had been waning as Lavinsky just laughed off the idea of himself being arrested, with Herring continuing to warn him of the seriousness of the situation.
"Hang them all, they can try to arrest me if they wish, I'll kill every damn one of them if I must. The nation will simply not allow it."
"Yes sir, we have made arrangements to shut down all foreign embassy's within the country and have sent for the return of all our diplomats away on business. However, I think it would be a good idea to alert the military and prepare for the worst" the Internal Affairs advisor replied stoicly.
"Yes, yes. Send the word, I want the borders heavily guarded and send word to the navy that I want all foreign ships or planes shot down immediately. Alert Rendition's Congress that I would like a formal meeting with the President, no one need be within 100 miles of our borders without my permission" Lavinsky said with a slight look of worry on his face.
"Good day Herring." |

Messages have been sent to all three of your nations. Stralphi and Aethryea have both recieved messages, as I percieved they both showed some interest. So check your messages for this information. You can begin preparing your cases, and PM me with any questions.
We are awaiting the set up of a regional council again I assume, and they will act as jury. So remember who you are presenting this information to, and act accordingly. |

Here is the info given by Xile:
QUOTE | A variety of messages were intercepted between both Hadilla and Lavinsky, of which they talked that a certain 'threat to our goals' needed to be taken care of. This occured days before the assassination of President Cannonite.
Hadilla was a public critic of Aidan, and they had quite a few debates on the nation's standpoint in the region. One of these became so heated that Hadilla punched the president.
Aidan had long been discussing exiling Hadilla for his growing hostility, and his massive command of troops made him a formidable foe. Hadilla had acted outside the Presidents orders on a few occasions, and escaped reprimand with a show of force.
Hadilla is known to have led troops into Salmantic territory to reclaim land that Aidan had ceded. Hadilla believed the land should remain in the hands of Xile.
During his short tenure as Commander of Xilian Forces, Hadilla marched on East Gate, a neutral territory. When questioned by the Tachbian government why he did such a thing, Hadilla ordered the Tachbian embassy be fired upon. Quite a few diplomats and Tachbian citizens died in the fray.
Hadilla had also been planning to become dictator of the Xilian government. Plans were found of a coup that was to take place within the city, where he would proclaim himself leader of the nation. |
