Terledrom Council Member Resigns Amid Controversy by Chance

Terledrom, Fromeltar System - Vivevtik-Vre'Kor [Vf] announced her resignation from the Terledrom ruling council on Seventh day. The resignation was not entirely unexpected concerning her remarks a four-day ago when, during a holovid interview on the "Sunrise Show", she insulted the Dralasiie population of the planet.

The interview was discussing the upcoming vote of the much debated "Dralk Welfare Bill". When asked whether she would vote for the bill she commented that "with the way Dralasites talk, we were lucky it got drafted in the first place, so I wouldn't count on a vote".

This tops a month of racial tension between the Dralasite and Vrusk of Fromeltar. Urthek Driv [Dn], spokesperson of the Dralasite Organization Of Movement, sites this as "another case of Vrusk attempts to enslave the Dralasites of Fromeltar".

On Day 374 the famous Dral murder trial ended in planet wide riots when murderers Dralif Fie [Dm] and Dralik Mor [Df] were conviceted, but their accomplice Viviete Vifi [Vm] was acquitted. The Dralasite response was all that more angry since Vifi was allowed a separate trial, while Fie's and Mor's request for separate trials were denied.

Vre'Kor's resignation also comes at a bad time for the Vivevtik politicorp. Vivevtik acquired the Vir-Frie politicorp just before the death of their famed councillor Vivevtik Virso [Vm]. Vre-Kor was supposed to be a protege of Virso, but her recent comments, combined with the political climate on Fromeltar, prematurely ended her career.

The Vivevtik Politicorp had no comment on Vre'Kor's statements except to confirm her resignation. A replacement for the Vivevtik seat has not been announced, but sources claim that they may be looking at Samantha Forsythe [Hf] as a possible replacement. If so, Samantha would be the first Human councillor on Fromeltar
