सुविदिते शत्रुशासनापदेशेनैनं घातयेत् ॥ कZ_०२.९.२७ ॥
suvidite śatru-śāsanāpadeśenainaṃ ghātayet
Una vez bien establecido el asunto, debe ser eliminado con el pretexto de actuar por orden de un enemigo.
‘Suvidite’—the wrongdoing/plot must be clearly verified; action follows confirmation, not suspicion alone.
It provides deniability and reduces internal backlash by shifting attribution away from the ruler/state.
