Aman Evek

Gul Aman Evek was a commanding officer in the Cardassian Fourth Order, who rose to prominence in the 2350s and became a respected officer until his downfall and suicide in 2371.

Early Military Career
By 2351, Evek was a Gul in the Fourth Order and had built a very successful career as a soldier in the various military campaigns against the Federation and the Klingon Empire. As well as being a brilliant soldier and strategist, Evek was also a family man, and had two sons who followed his footsteps into the Cardassian military. Unfortunately, both his sons were killed in the decisive Starfleet victory over a Cardassian fleet in the Rabroc Nebula in 2366. (VGR novella: Star Trek: The Badlands, Book 2).

Patrolling the DMZ
By 2370, Gul Evek was in command of the Galor-class warship, Vetar, and was assigned to patrol the Federation-Cardassian border. Following the signing of the Federation-Cardassian Treaty of 2370, the Vetar was assigned to the removal of Federation colonists from Cardassian territory in the Demilitarized Zone. Also assigned to the DMZ to monitor the relocation was the USS Enterprise-D.

A new war between the Federation and the Cardassians nearly began, when Evek began to remove the Native American colonists on the planet Dorvan V, while the Enterprise was still trying to arrange their relocation. Thankfully, bloodshed was avoided when the inhabitants decided to join the Cardassians. (TNG episode: "Journey's End").
