Jawas Apprehend Illegal Loiterers (Especially Droids)
Posted by: Jic Uiji, Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force
Date: Year 22 Day 14 Onboard the Strike-class Medium Cruiser Jar K'osa Lo'wassa in system Tatoo (296, -248).

With rampant crime, cities falling into decay, and gangsters acting with seeming impunity throughout Tatooine, it has quickly become clear that something must be done. Hearing the call to action, the Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force (JEFF) has taken on the tall order of bringing justice back to the streets and enabling a free flow of legitimate commerce into Tatooine. The first step is, of course, ensuring that the dune seas are free of loiterers, especially those that happen to be unattended droids.

No job too big, JEFF catches this notorious robotic criminal.

Highly trained sworn officers from JEFF have deployed alongside numerous Jawa contractors hoping to canvas the entirety of the desert in the next few weeks. Working closely with local Jawa authorities, the crew has so far captured many nefarious criminals, sentient and electronic alike. However, JEFF is firstly here to serve the local communities and themselves, and to that end has been pushing forward several social outreach programs such as "Free trips back to the local tavern to combat heat stroke" and "Low priced restraining bolts with delivery."

Many unusual findings have been uncovered over the course of this operation. Early into the search, a Nautolan individual who is theorized to have been kept captive since the second battle of Tatooine was freed, even though he is still in significant distress and it is unclear how he has remained captive for so long. Numerous IG-series assassin droids have been identified in the desert surrounding the B’omarr monastery, likely with ill intentions. There have also been several instances of the discovery of high-powered rifles buried in the sand. With less than 10% of the planet searched so far, there are sure to be many more mysteries for the JEFF to investigate.

Additionally, this announcement comes as part of a wider push for Tatooine to become more welcoming to Jawa expatriates and the sentients throughout the galaxy. Notably, this is accompanying the JOE operation designed to dismantle abandoned Human and Falleen settlements to make way for more pod racing tracks. Naturally, the allure of more podracing tracks and space in the desert for other Jawa activities is expected to bring back many sentients who have had to flee Tatooine during the numerous adverse political climates that have previously occupied the world. To an extent, this is already being witnessed with Heek Jikjawa, notable Jawa, having recently been spotted arriving back at Tatooine with his entire family (or at least some Jawas who look close enough).

As a final message, JEFF would like to remind the sentients of the galaxy that Tatooine is open for business and is the best place to spend your strange alien holiday season. Featuring long scenic deserts and exciting tourist destinations like Bestine Square, Mos Espa, and the Palace Compound of Legitimate Businesshutts, Tatooine truly is an ideal tourist destination. If you are in need of assistance during your visit or wish to purchase a rehabilitated IG-series assassin droid, be sure to contact your local JEFF officer.
