Selemanaban was a judge on the planet Zerkalo in the 24th century. In 2370, when Commander Zawara and Lieutenant Hans McDowell were arrested for attempting to question Astrid Kemal's parents at their home, Astrid attempted to contact Judge Selemanaban to talk about the situation. As Selemanaban was unavailable at the time, Astrid contacted President Stoneroots instead. (TNG novel: Infiltrator)
