सुविदिते शत्रुशासनापदेशेनैनं घातयेत् ॥ कZ_०२.९.२७ ॥
suvidite śatru-śāsanāpadeśenainaṃ ghātayet
事が十分に確証されたなら、敵の命令に従ったという口実のもとで彼を抹殺すべきである。
‘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.
