Report:Crackdown on Ord Mantell

Ord Mantell has begun a crackdown - on its own officials. Numerous beings within the Ord Mantell police and customs forces have been arrested on charges of corruption on the orders of Senator Marx, as part of her ongoing efforts to clean up the system.

During this period of transition, Ord Mantell is recieving assistance from Kashyyyk, who have generously agreed to provide scores of wookiees to serve as a temporary police force for the planet. Details regarding the deal have not been released, but Senator Marx has called it "a display of comaraderie and friendship that Ord Mantell, and I, will never forget."

Kashyyyk's assistance is only a temporary measure, and both the Ord Mantell police force and customs offices are looking to fill their ranks with dedicated, loyal beings within the New Republic. Interested parties are encouraged to contact Senator Marx's office to arrange an interview.
