《晋书·志·第二十章》
那些看见而且了解罪犯却故意不检举揭发的，全都与罪犯同罪，罪犯逃跑了不检举揭发的，都按赎罪论处，没看到又不知情的，不算犯罪，因此条文简约但条例宏通。
其见知而故不举劾，各与同罪，失不举劾，各以赎论，其不见不知，不坐也，是以文约而例通。
Those who see and understand the criminals but deliberately do not report and expose them are all guilty of the same crime as the criminals. If the criminals escape and do not report them, they shall all be punished according to the redemption of sins. If they do not see or know, it is not a crime. Therefore, the text is simple, but the provisions are broad.
