HAASTADT, Rovens (RIM) -- After a tension-filled 30 hours during which the fate of the Peoples Republic of Rovens was hanging by the words of the country's military chief, General Keralski has declared on national television that the attempted coup is an "illegal act". General Keralski arrived in Haastadt and read a prepared statement to the cameras of the country's only television station in which he said the coup was "a clear sign that the government of Rovens is failing in its duty to the people", and held the President responsible for the coup, but said that, however well intentioned, Colonel Zegannin's attempted coup was an "illegal act" |

General Keralski leads the country's 40,000 military personnel and is very popular amongst the military, having their deepest respect. If the General has supported the coup, and ordered his soldiers to take control, there would have been little doubt that the PIMR government, indeed the entire Peoples Republic constitution would have ended.
What puzzles many is why it took General Keralski so long to publicly condemn the attempted coup. Officially, the General said he was "unavailable", on leave fishing in the Port of Olives province, and had not heard that a coup had been attempted until late on Saturday. Many government insiders claim he spent the hours deciding whether to support the coup or not, whether the timing was right, and obviously decided it was not.
"Clearly this is not the end of the matter, and the country is still under threat from the military", said one government MP.
