How Palpatine Learned Darth Maul Was Still Alive

The moment when Palpatine learned that Darth Maul survived The Phantom Menace is significant, though it has never been shown on-screen in the Star Wars franchise. Revealed to have survived being cut in half by Obi-Wan Kenobi in the first prequel movie, Darth Maul resurfaces during the animated Clone Wars series. However, parts of his dark story were never revealed in the series itself.
