"Hands are clean" nghĩa là gì?


“(one’s) hands are clean” = bàn tay sạch -> nghĩa là không dính dáng tới việc xấu, không làm bất kỳ việc phạm pháp nào cả.

Ví dụ
A task easier said than done (nói thì dễ, làm mới khó) since Matthew can’t help but blow up at his wife about her affair with George. Not that his hands are clean either, what with his gambling and frequent lies.

Domelevo, a man of integrity (tính chính trực, liêm chính), has become a leading light for citizens who aspire to build the Republic and put Ghana first. His hands are clean. Akufo-Addo rode to the Jubilee House on the high horse of an anti-corruption crusader (người tham gia cuộc vận động chống tham nhũng). It’ll dent his credentials (phẩm chất) if, unquestionably, the most upright citizen in public service is forced out of office.

The lawyer who organised bail for a suspected jailbreaker who has been linked to an alleged plot to spring former Thai junior minister Lieutenant Colonel Banyin Tangpakorn from prison has met with senior police officers including the Head of Metropolitan Police Division One in Bangkok, to brief them on his actions and has underlined his clean hands in relation to the affair. During nearly five hours of interrogation (sự thẩm vấn, chất vấn), he told them that this was simply a normal bail application that he had undertaken when requested by a fellow legal practitioner.
