"While I might not be your senior officer. I do have a little bit of sway because of my position. I have no doubt that you superiors would not enjoy reading about this incident."
"In the papers, probably not, but when they hear that without speaking with us first, you let a being on this station with body parts not belonging to him, I think they will point the finger at you now us. Besides, we tried to cooperate with Starfleet. It was Starfleet that would not try to cooperate with us. I am sure that your superiors will love to hear from ours about the benefits, and regulations, of interagency cooperation. So, please file a report with our superiors." Dais almost blanched when he heard that the items were body parts. "While I agree that it would not be looked well upon, we still could not have acted upon the information received as the result of an illegal scan. It would not have held up in court, and you know it." After a moment's consideration, Dais continued, "That does not mean that we will not be able to deal with the situation while the representative is on the station. Possession of such parts are most likely still against the law while on the station even if he is not transporting it. May I ask what body parts and species were in his possession?" "So now you want to cooperate..... Well Commander, it really makes not difference how you back door it. Any judge will throw out anything you go to him with because your knowledge is based on a legally forbidden action. Any defence lawyer worth half his wait in dirt would be able to get your evidence kicked, and without evidence you have no case. But in the spirit of interagency cooperation, it was a pair of hands. Human hands at that. It was not clear if they were from differnet individuals, but I would say so..." "Perhaps through proper channels we can still get this Bajoran dispite your diplomatic indiscretion." "Just wait a minute here. There is no we. When you decided to take jurisdiction and let the Bajoran in, you accepted all responsibility. Basicially, it's not our problem, it's all yours my good Commander." the agent replied. Obviously happy with things... "I am sorry, perhaps I can still get this Bajoran dispite your diplomatic indiscretion." Dais was quickly becoming an unhappy Trill. "I am not sure how you are planning on blaming Starfleet in this incident, Mister. It is your job to review incoming materials and persons under the guidelines set before you. You did not do that. As a result, you have information that you should not have. The Bajoran came to the station on a Bajoran ship. (OOC: I assume since he was going through customs.)" Dais glanced toward the Lieutenant to see if there was anything else that needed to be discussed.
