STARBASE 22, Hromi Sector -- Sources within the United Federation of Planet's Second Fleet are reporting that Commander Evelyn Hawke, long considered one of the highest-ranking traitors in Starfleet history, has been captured near Vulcan.
The former Starfleet officer and Commander-in-Chief of the U.C.I.P. has long been a face on the top-10 most wanted individuals list, publicized on a monthly basis by Starfleet Intelligence. Convicted in a military grand jury hearing in 2400, in the wake of the Shadow Forces overthrow of the Federation government, she has been described as vital to the plot that attempted to replace the government with a military dictatorship.

Anonymous sources indicate that the capture of the former Starfleet officer was executed by personnel from the U.S.S. Intrepid (NCC-3875-D). The most recent information available lists the vessel as a Sovereign class starship which currently serves as the flagship of the United Federation of Planet's Second Fleet.

Several government officials, who requested anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the forthcoming legal procedures, have stated to the Federation News Network that the government is preparing an extensive courtmartial and trial, although there has been no official statements to confirm or deny this allegation. If true, analysts say, the legal maneuverings would represent a desire to quickly close the story of a barbaric time in Federation history.
