Description
Pirate Anaconda showing as wanted while interdicting but turns to a clean status and remains clean while firing on my ship in a secure system. Gained a 6 day kill bounty against me after I accidently collided with it - a few times. Thought this bug was fixed, not wanting to see it carried forward into the new build.

Make sure "Report Crimes Against Me" is switched on too, while you have described an initial bug, the bounty should be prevented (once the pirate fires on you) but he will remain clean if it isn't.

Interesting, I do have it switched off due to security ships getting in my way and even causing the pirates to do a runner, but it's still a bug that's been around for a while and it's not the first time I've experienced and reported it.

This JUST happened to me as well.

I came out of SC at Zeigel Dock and the pirate NPC came in right behind me and started to open fire. When I spun around and hit him, I got flagged with bounty, then the security wiped me out in 3 seconds, and I lost a boat load of credits because of it.

6mil in cargo runs
3.5mil insurance
1mil in failure fines

Not cool...
