Quick facts:Assan Kieren
Assan Kieren (* 2584; disappeared Nov 2639) was the Senator of Terra until his disappearance and member of a separatistic anti-Messer movement.[1][2]
Career
Nothing is known about his early life. He became Governor of Terra III in 2624 and served until 2635.[2] He was made Senator of the System in 2635.
Kieren used his position to critize the Messer regime for his xenophobia and decried 'the pro-military agenda of the UEE and its unconditional support of the military-industrial complex.'[1] He faced a political smear campaign[3] with accusations 'from infidelity to drug addiction to corruption' soon afterwards.[1]
After losing the referendum for separation from the UEE, on 2638-04-05, he accused the UEE of voter fraud, but was forced to retreat from his mandate. The Terra Gazette declared on 2638-11-04 that '[u]nnamed sources from within the government claim that Xi'an-funded terrorists had infiltrated various positions in government and Corp structures,' pointing out that Kieren 'might be implicated.'[1]
Kieren disappeared in November 2939.[2] There are unproven rumors that he was murdered.[3]
