Question : Banu Haqim morality

Hi everyone !

Maybe it is a stupid question but I was wondering about clan Banu Haqim and how their *moral compass* (for lack of a better word) works.

The lore describes the Banu Haqim as Kindred who have a strong sense of justice but yet, it is stated that they have an interest in organized crime and may even embrace criminals.

How does it work ? Do the Banu Haqim turn a blind eye to the worst parts ot their kine's illegal activities ? Or do they simply take control of criminal groups that have a strong code of conduct (such as how members of the Yakuza and the italian Mafia aren't supposed to harm *civilians*) ?

I am asking because during my prep for my own chronicle set in Houston, I was wondering what to do with the Banu Haqim since another clan has already claimed the law enforcement and several law firms.

I was thinking about make the Banu Haqim pursue control over the local chinese triad and the street gangs under its control... but would the Banu Haqim be OK with working with people that are knee-deep into drug dealing and human trafficking ?

Thanks in advance, and sorry if it is a stupid question. I checked again the Camarilla book and the wiki page quickly before posting and didn't find my answer there.
