Bakura Imperial Prison
Bakura Imperial Prison
The Bakura Imperial Prison was a detention center orbiting the Outer Rim planet of Bakura. The facility seemed to have two large solar sails and rotated fairly quickly.
Description
The station was heavily armed with numerous turbolasers ready to strike any intruder coming in too close.
Apart from the turbolaser defenses, endless numbers of TIE fighters patrolled the surrounding space all the time. There were also docking bays for Imperial Dropship Transports who frequently arrived with new criminals.
Raid at Bakura
In 3 ABY, with the Rebel Alliance loss at the Battle of Hoth, some scientists were found on the ice-covered planet. Because of their loyalty to the Rebellion, they were arrested by the Empire and sent here.
Some time after the event, rebel General Crix Madine made up a plan to rescue the scientists, and Wedge Antilles along with Rogue Squadron were sent to the Bakura system. Upon arrival, Imperial Dropship Transports were departing the station with the scientists. Wedge, however, stopped them from escaping with his ion guns. Rebel evacuation transports arrived and although the Imperial starfighter defenses repeatedly attacked, and an unknown Imperial vessel managed to destroy the third transport that was escaping with the prisoners, the battle ultimately became a victory for the rebels.
