This is a Zaphira City News publication from 2/14/2421.
== Lower Zaphira's Garden District Crackdown ==
==== Councilman Satchi Takes Initiative Against Crime ====
As of early Sunday morning, the Garden District in Lower Zaphira found its streets flooded with mechs known as "Lilacs" under the orders of Councilman Satchi to "clean the streets." When attempting to contact him for comment, the call was forwarded to his assistant AI, A.N.I. It had this to say on the matter:
"Satchi has decided it is time to take decisive action and has issued a major sweep of his district. He is following his fellow Council Member Kimberly Tortalleato in taking control of the security systems that were left in the hands of the corporations who we trusted to ensure our security. We are working with NeoSec and the district's LZPD to clean up what was left to rot under our noses."
Councilwoman Tortalleato's actions however pale in comparison to the level of meticulous effort that Councilman Satchi has taken. Unlike the 25 individuals that were arrested in Tortalleato's Market District, in which 13 of them now reside behind bars, the Lilac Units detained and arrested over 500 individuals with charges ranging from human trafficking, drug dealing, and even several individuals who had outstanding warrants from outside Zaphira.
As of the writing of this article, the Lilac Units are still policing the streets and strictly enforcing laws that were previously neglected via the corrupt officials who were governing them. A preliminary report suggests that by the end of next week, over 35,000 individuals may be brought to justice in the Garden District alone, if not more.
ZNN applauds Councilman Satchi in his proactive efforts to bring safety and peace to Lower Zaphira. We will continue bring news of developments as they happen. This has been ZNN.
