A few moments later Commander Joe Garibaldi arrives.

"Commander Dais, hello.  I am Commander Joseph Garibaldi with the Inspector 
Generals office.  I understand that you have an assignment for me..."

"Thank you for coming, Commander.  You were recommended to me by Admiral 
Renaud.  Please have a seat," indicated the XO.

"We have had a situation come up where it is imperative for a Starfleet 
officer to work with the Bajoran Chief of Staff on an investigation of one 
of the Bajoran's diplomatic entourage."

(response)

"It started yesterday.  I was called down to deal with a situation in 
Customs.  A Bajoran diplomat had been searched by two of the customs 
officers on duty at the time.  Apparantly, there had been a mix up with his 
paperwork, and he admitted that he had an illegal personal weapon on his 
person.  As you can imagine, the diplomat was not exactly the most friendly 
after the illegal search.  I convinced him to turn over the personal weapon 
to me and Security, and he went on his way."

"Well, that is not all that happened," said the Trill with a sigh.  "I asked 
the Customs officials what they found.  It was clear to me that they had 
found something in the scan that had intensified the situation.  After some 
discussion, they told me that he had a dismembered human hand on him."

(response)

"I understand that.  I thought that perhaps since we could not work on it 
because of immunity, the Bajorans would be interested in it enough to 
investigate the situation.  They did express an interest, but I got a 
feeling that they were going to try and sweep it under the rug once they 
took over.  They agreed that it would be prudent to work with a Starfleet 
officer on it."
