On October 19, 2163, the SuD Qav detected a Lorillian freighter in the Kandari sector. Captain Lokog decided to raid the freighter and sell any surviving Lorillians as slaves on the Orion market. The freighter was disabled and its duranium cargo stolen by the Klingon pirates. The Federation Starfleet starship USS Pioneer found the wrecked freighter and rescued four survivors. Chief engineer Dashec asked Captain Malcolm Reed to go after the SuD Qav, but the Federation ship was inside Rigelian jurisdiction and could not interfere.
