It is committed by public office holders when they act, or fail to act, in a way that constitutes a breach of duties of that office. So, if an employee commits say a criminal offence and other misconduct, issues which would normally always be investigated and which would always result in at least a written warning, dismissal and/or prosecution, and yet nothing is done and DUE PROCESS is not followed, allowing the guilty party to carry on, then it could be deemed that those involved in covering up have committed an offence too. A further problem arises if the misconduct in public office is also covered-up...
