Djel Sannes (Anime)

Djel Sannes (ジェル・サネス) is a former member of the Military Police Brigade and part of the First Interior Squad.

Appearance
Sannes is a tall man with a short crop of dark-colored hair and bright eyes. He is usually seen wearing the Military Police uniform.

Personality
Sannes is an individual who holds a strong sense of loyalty to the king and keeping the security of the Walls, to the point of adhering to the murder and torture of others regardless of who they are to maintain peace. Like most Military Policemen, he looks down upon those from the Survey Corps, regarding them as lackeys that only waste taxes used to fund them, unlike useful soldiers such as himself.

The Uprising arc
After receiving word that Pastor Nick from the Order of the Walls has divulged valuable secrets to the Scout Regiment, Sannes and another Military Policeman, are ordered to find out how much he told. Visiting the man, Sannes savagely beats and tortures Nick. Despite his best efforts however, Nick refuses to talk and eventually dies without saying anything.

Sannes and his companion cover up the torture by claiming that Nick was killed during a burglary gone wrong. When Nick's friend Hange Zoë attempts to investigate, Sannes refuses to allow her entry, claiming she will interfere with the crime scene. As Hange persists, Sannes forcefully grabs her jacket to inspect which squad she came from, but held back by Moblit, who properly introduces Hange and himself. Realizing that both soldiers are from the Scout Regiment, Sannes turns hostile and insults them. Hange expresses her shock to find a soldier from the First Interior Squad where they have no jurisdiction, but Sannes explains that the area is very important and he was stationed there because there were not enough soldiers around. Sannes claims that what befell Nick is not rare considering the his status. Hange apologizes, and entrusts the investigation to the two men and asks them to relay a message to the culprits before leaving.

Sannes later attends an audience with various nobles and King Fritz. The nobles express dissatisfaction with him for failing to get any information from Nick, but when he volunteers to continue searching for more information, Lord Reiss tells him that it will not be necessary.
