English term or phrase: has been held to engage
Hola
me gustaría saber el significado de esta expresión en el siguiente contexto:

If Distributor has been held to engage or have engaged in acts of bribery or otherwise does not meet generally accepted standards and present acceptable risk as a result of due diligence carried out under XXXXX anti-bribery Policies.

Entiendo que debe ser algo como "si está acusado de haber participado" o similar. ¿Es correcto?

Gracias

BTW, there's an error in the English:
If Distributor has been held to engage or have engaged in acts of bribery ...
-->
If Distributor has been held to engage or HAS engaged in acts of bribery ...
