ARREST ORDER #XV32LJ
The following subject is to be apprehended ALIVE and detained for interrogation by Colonel Kratek. Must not be allowed to fall into enemy hands.
Name: Doctor Mandor Savic
Age: 45
Profession: Research Scientist
Born into family of intellectuals. Educated at Pyrrhus Academy, Institute of Science and Technology. Father, Professor Torr Savic, scientist responsible for the early development of Arc technology.
Family imprisoned for treason when father objected to the diversion of this technology from civil applications to weapons development. Subject was spared and encouraged to pursue his father's research to assure his family's well-being.
Psychological evaluations suggest a brilliant scientist, in awe of his father, sharing his idealism but lacking his courage and resenting its cost to the family. Colleagues reported him loyal to the Helghast state and dedicated to securing its future through scientific advances.
Following vetting, selected by Colonel Kratek for lead role in bioweapons program. Details confidential, but based upon technology recovered from laboratories on Vekta. Subject is therefore of great value to the ISA.
Attempted to defect, seeking refuge at Vektan Embassy. Reasons unknown, though some evidence that subject objected to the nature of the research he was compelled to undertake, or its possible application. May also have discovered that his family died while being used for experimental research years earlier.
Transmissions with Vektan Ambassador were intercepted and arrest attempted at the Embassy. Subject had already fled.
Present whereabouts unknown, but believed to have escaped the Embassy by boat and gone into hiding in the smoker tower district.
