Russian term or phrase: Покрывать коррупцию здесь Захотелось мистеру Смиту отомстить за унижение, а по документам выходит, что он кругом виноват. Вот и позвонили ему из суда с предложением дать взятку и его безнадежное дело вдруг выиграло. Теперь позвонят и ему, и в суд с предложением поделиться, из канцелярии Mr Heinz. Глупо ведь думать, что он покрывает коррупцию из-за симпатий к кому-либо. Покрывает коррупцию ?? Спасибо!

El oso Russian Federation @ Evgeny 12:29 Dec 28, 2015  That was exactly my thought: it's hard to tell from the context whether this individual is up to his neck in corruption, being on the payroll of some criminals or he simply condones corruption by not doing enough/anything about it as a law enforcement officer. Evgeny Artemov (X) South Africa Not enough context. 22:32 Dec 27, 2015  The Russian expression -- as quoted here -- may mean EITHER suggestion below (active covering up OR just failing to react, which are different things, by me).
