This is sometimes important - it may say "likely to cause negative media" or that there is a "credible allegation" civilians have been killed.

The department is conducting a thorough investigation of all credible allegations of wrongdoing.

"In order to trigger, no matter what, you've got to have a specific and credible allegation that a person has committed a crime," Radek explained.

"So the question came: Is there a credible allegation for us to look at?"

We investigate thoroughly any credible allegations and take appropriate action if they are substantiated.

He said in his acceptance speech, "This frenzy goes on and on despite the absence of a single credible allegation that they did anything wrong."
