A Bajoran resident of Deep Space 9 in the episode A Man Alone, who whips up a crowd against Odo when the constable is suspected of murdering the smuggler Ibudan.
Zayra is a Bajoran living on Deep Space 9 in the first-season episode A Man Alone. When the black marketeer Ibudan is apparently found murdered in a locked holosuite, and Odo is known to have despised him, Zayra is among the first to say openly that the shapeshifter must be guilty.
He argues that a suspect cannot be left in charge of security, and his agitation helps turn unease into a mob that wrecks the security office and gathers outside it calling for Odo.
Sisko faces the crowd down, and Julian Bashir then shows that the dead man was a clone Ibudan had grown and killed in order to frame Odo. Zayra's part in the affair is a reminder of how little the changeling was trusted in his early days under Starfleet.
