Taela Shanthi

Taela Shanthi was a female Human Starfleet officer in the 24th century.

As of early 2368, Fleet Admiral Shanthi was stationed at Starbase 234. That year, during the Klingon Civil War, she approved Captain Jean-Luc Picard's plan to blockade the Klingon-Romulan using a tachyon detection grid. 

By 2370, Shanthi was stationed at Starbase 247. That year, Captain Picard reported to her after discovering Admiral Erik Pressman's plot to recover an illegal Federation interphase cloaking device from the wreckage of the USS Pegasus. Shanthi assured Picard there would be a full inquiry.
