Farius Prime

Farius Prime was an independent planet located in neutral space near the United Federation of Planets, the Cardassian Union, and the Ferengi Alliance. Its proximity to these territories and location in neutral space made it a frequent destination for Bajorans fleeing the Cardassian Occupation.

Though significantly developed, there was a substantial organized criminal element on the planet. For Bajoran refugees, it was a dangerous destination, since the criminal elements would often prey on the refugees, promising to transport them to safety for a fee and then turning around and selling them back to the Cardassians or other slavers.
