Citizen Day

Citizen Day is a holiday to   'celebrate community and the commitment to build a better universe for our children and our children's children'. It is held yearly on October 10, SET. It was introduced in the 28th century by Erin Toi.

The festivities usually take place on Prime, Terra (planet), and attracts millions of participants from across the UEE.

2949 citizen day crime spree
During the festivities of Citizen Day 2949 on Prime, there were numerous reports of criminal activity. It was believed to be a well coordinated operation to break into private residents of some of the highly esteemed participants of the Citizen Day celebrations, because they knew they wouldn't be at home during this. Amongst the victims affected by this are prominent local business owners and philanthropists, sataball and vid stars, and political figures like Mira Ngo, who was forced to cancel her six-system campaign tour as a result of this. The perpetrators are believed to have then used the extremely busy spacelanes after the celebration as cover to escape the area. This was the reason even the Advocacy was involved in the investigation.

"In the early evening on the tenth of October, we began to receive numerous reports of break-ins at private residences in and around the Prime metropolitan area. The timing and similar methodology, along with evidence collected at the scene, led us to believe that these incidents are related. In each case, the perpetrators skillfully bypassed security systems, targeted and stole certain types of valuables, and vandalized the residences in a similar matter.

A number of these incidents occurred simultaneously, which indicates that multiple, coordinated teams carried out the robberies. It also suggests a sizeable and sophisticated criminal organization might be behind the operation. Due to this factor, and others that we're not currently at liberty to reveal, the Prime Metropolitan Police Department has asked the Advocacy for assistance with this investigation.

We've also decided to appeal to the public for help. The extent and nature of these crimes indicate a high probability that the operation may extend beyond the Terra system. If you have any information related to these or similar crimes, please contact the Prime Metropolitan Police Department. We've set up an anonymous comm line and will be offering a reward for any information leading to an arrest."
