Article 8 Section B (2) explains that rights to salvage do not include claims to biomass, and the
responsibility for any persons, living or dead, discovered aboard wreckage lies with their
immediate next of kin. If no competent next of kin exists, responsibility for those discovered lies
with the government of their citizenship.

Article 8 Section B (2a) states that the Directive Enforcement Department can assume right to

Had you read this you would understand that the remains of Dr. Tukoss' IS NOT his property and he therefore has no rights to claim over its subsequent seizure.

At least we can show respect to his remains, unlike CONCORD who are using that as an excuse to persecute innocent capsuleers.

I advise you don't support them.

From what you're saying, surely Ms. Scherezad can't be considered to have acted improperly? So, respectfully, why detain her?



I'd rather not discuss more details in public out of respect for her.

I will reiterate that visitation is perfectly allowed for anybody concerned for her well being.


Can I bring her a cake?
I am sending a small sterilized file to Pilot Tuulinen to include in that cake. Great for cutting bars of any holding cell. Say what you will but we Matari have some experience escaping "protective custody".

Any capsuleer held by or under threat of Concord deserves non-partisan support.

I object to how Concord has handled this case thus far. If they think they are going to coerce the Caldari or any capsuleers by brute force they are in for an unfortunate surprise. They might be shocked to discover how quickly we can put aside our current differences to stand together against a general threat to all capsuleers by heavy handed thugs hiding behind a Concord badge or DED desk.

they imply that they will size what ever they please. No where in the statement was the pilot in question afforded an attorney. nor was he allowed to present his counter claim.

--EDIT--
To further my argument

Why this Biomass? Drifters have been stealing corpses for months now. DED has done nothing.

There is a robust market for capsuleer biomass. Concord has never done anything to disrupt it. If according to the Yulai Agreements capsuleer remains should be handed over to next of kin or the state why has Concord done nothing to stop the trade in corpses?

If I scoop one piece of veldspar from someone else's wreck I would get an immediate criminal suspect flagging, if biomass is not legal salvage why does it not trigger suspect status? Selective enforcement?

Makers sake, are you daft. You just listed both the Article and Section of the Yulai Convention that gives them the legal authority to do so, what exactly are you arguing? The pilot in question has NO RIGHT to a proper attorney or present a counter claim by the very articles you just listed untill AFTER he has been apprehended.

He has absolutely zero, let me say that again ZERO, judicial rights to a counter-claim. The body of Dr. Tukoss's is not his to take. The equipment used after his recovery while unfortunate is pertinent to the ongoing investigation.

Rest assured I'm sure we will see a trial AFTER he is apprehended and the body returned. But as he is still at large CONCORD has every right to issue bounties and levy heavy sanctions against him and anyone they suspect he may be using to evade their request.

What respect Doctor?

The man is running around with the poor Doctor's remains in his cargo hold. If respect was really the foundation of your argument he would have been buried, respectfully by now.

Right now all I see is a few capsuleers using a piece of this poor mans body as a bloody banner for capsuleer independence, respect has nothing to do with it, and making some oft and unproven claim that CONCORD or the DED somehow plan on not doing exactly what they've outlined doing is grasping at straws at best.

If these people didn't like living under CONCORD rule and the Yulai convention they should have opted to leave High-security space like so many of us have done, or not become a capsuleer at all.

We all signed the paper upon attaining our licence. We all have a right to question and challenge the laws we live under, but not to disobey them in their enaction.

Return the poor souls remains,
End this nonsense.

Fellow Capsuleers,

I would like to point out that we did not recover the corpse of Hilen Tukoss. Mr. Lucas Raholan was not able to extract the corpse from the wreck of a Buzzard class spaceship due to reasons unknown. We are talking about the following:

Medical Report wrote:
The tissue sample has a mass of 137 grams. There is little moisture in the sample, the vast majority having evaporated on exposure to vacuum. This has caused the tissue to shrink from its original size and deform.


It is not known to us, or at least to me, what happened to the corpse. When we returned, it had vanished. Parts of the wreckage remained visible.

Sincerely,

Haria Haritimado

My apologise Ms. Haritimado, corpse was the wrong term. I'll preform a small edit. Remains I suppose is the closest best term. I hope that is satisfactory.

You know, I was all for handing over the remains, but the more CONCORD goes into OVERDRIVE, the more I feel like that may not be a good idea.

tl:dr: It's a trust issue, if you want to gain someone's trust, this is not the way to go about it.
...That counts for both sides, perhaps.

It's quite simple if you think about it.

The Drifters are Jovian. They are simply protecting their technology. CONCORD does not have authority over them, as they are not Capsuleers certified through CONCORD. Both Hilen Tukoss and those responsible for salvaging his remains are.

While this seems straightforward, there's an added wrinkle. This action is presumably based on recovery efforts in unknown space. That means it was not Jovian nor CONCORD jurisdiction. Until this is established, there are no legally binding rules regarding salvage therein.

Just as CONCORD cannot enforce a travel ban to these systems, they are not legally able to confiscate salvage or remains obtained there. That is why they are proceeding with internal remedies to this by threatening the Capsuleers in question. That is also why they did not present a legal case to these Capsuleers but are using salvage law to justify their internal actions.

There is no legal case being presented, because none exists. Neither the Drifters stealing corpses nor the remains of Hilen Tukoss are under CONCORD's jurisdiction. One, however, is a perfect excuse to continue the "Threat to Interstellar Security" line of reasoning that the DED has been using to keep information regarding the Drifters secret. It is how they are grasping for power over freedom of speech, freedom of inquiry, and freedom of movement.

As Capsuleers, we should all be alarmed by this. As citizens of New Eden, we should be up in arms.

How awfully convenient for CONCORD to only choose to enforce the law now. A truly fair and just group does not pick and choose when to enforce which laws when it is convenient. Their job is to enforce all of the laws all of the time. By failing to enforce the laws regarding corpse ownership they indicated it does not matter to them and both that and their sudden use of that ignored law to get what they want only demonstrates corruption in their ranks and leadership.

I think the recent events in Sarum Prime are a prominent example of why CONCORD needs to cooperate with us as capsuleers in an open manner. The drifter threat has shown to be very real in the last 12 hours, more so than any other time.

Their current actions are nothing more than petty politics and name calling when the fate of the cluster now hangs in the balance.

I wrote to the DED, and my plea had obviously been ignored. So, again, I urge that CONCORD cease hostilities and work together with us to deal with this very real and dangerous threat.

People died today in the heart of one of the Empires, in a 1.0 system. An unprecedented incursion of 100 Drifter Battleships. What does the CONCORD? Shoots looters, ofcourse, because that's the law.

They should end this circus and get on the frontline.

To be fair, after I shot at the Drifters, I also shot at the looters.

Maybe not but they did simply stand by and watch an attack on one on the Empites unfold right in front of them. Are they so callous as to ignore the death and destruction being laid out in front of them?

'Not my problem mate' was most definitely not the answer I would expect to hear from any in a position to do something about it.

Bollocks more like.

Either these Drifters are a corp as per their listings and therefore opened fire in a criminal manner. This should have warranted a CONCORD response in the usual manner.

The other option is that this attack was by an unlisted group and is therefore more akin to a targeted incursion. In this case every damn ship available should have opened fire.

Unless my memory is faulty, CONCORD never did much to counter Sansha incursions either, and they ARE a registered pirate organization that would fall under CONCORD's purview. Clearly, CONCORD is guilty of gross neglegence.

I should also note, independent pilots and groups who arrived to assist were not under any obligation either.
"Not my job" is a poor excuse for not helping.
