I think you are mistaken, at least based upon how I read the
question...

If you bomb the system on turn X, then the report for turn X that the
former owner gets will not show any incoming reports for that system.
Furthermore, if you bomb it during the first bombing phase (i.e. you
had ships there at the begining of the turn), the former owner will
not see any ships that arrive at the system via routes/S commands/I
commands (unless of course he still has ships there, or ships of his
own arrive due to routes/S/I).

This answer holds true for Standard Galaxy, Blind Galaxy, Galaxy-NG,
and probably all other varients of Galaxy.
