No, no, that's exactly what complicit is.
If you have prior knowledge of an intricate and credible conspiracy to commit a crime... and you... don't do anything with that information, whereas if you had released that information, it may well have made the commission of the crime much more difficult...
Then you are complicit with the conspiracy to commit the crime, even if you're not directly involved in carrying out the crime.
If you friend knows your partner is cheating on you, and doesn't tell you... they're not complicit with the cheating per se, but they are complicit with keeping you in the dark about it.
This really isn't that complicated.
Oh, excuses? They're afraid?
Ok, sure, yep, they have reasons to be complicit, doesn't mean they're not complicit though.
Just following orders!
