Through her symbolic position in the Lotus Party as Primary Secretary, Abari was responsible for the creation of the Azkali Plan and the subsequent First Bapho-Azkali War, and genocide and mass-enslavement of Azkali people. Abari founded the Noellastani Peoples' Party in 1990, which would later influence the creation of the Crown Party and the 2005 Noellastani coup of which it conducted. In October 2025, she was convicted of treason, genocide, enslavement, conspiracy, crimes against sapientkind, and crimes "against the Azkali people at large" at the Turku trials, but was not sentenced due to her advanced age.
