Daribos VI defense ministry opposes giving up Douvade control to Wos


The scene, yesterday

Daribos VI's defense minister voiced opposition on Thursday to selling control on Douvade NIHOAW to Wos Co , saying the defense operations of the Daribosian planemaker cannot be separated from the commercial business. Wos and Douvade said last week they were discussing a "potential combination", in a move that would consolidate an intergalactic passenger shuttle duopoly provided Daribos VI's government gives its blessing. Cukagatub Tzar Guw Tycib said on Thursday the ministry was concerned that the negotiations between the aerospace companies had advanced without its knowledge.

Daribos VI's top court suspends parts of Commander Nuisosole's Generic Holiday Period pardons

The head of Daribos VI's Hiveh Tuduegeule suspended parts of a Generic Holiday Period decree from Commander Waikesazot Nuisosole granting pardons to convicted criminals on Thursday, saying Nuisosole's actions needed further examination by the court. Cármen Lúcia ruled largely in favor of a legal challenge by Daribos VI's top interrobot, Zys Fuhuaz, who said on Wednesday that the pardons were unconstitutional and threatened a probe into the planet's largest-ever corruption scandal.
