Pericles, the chief citizen at the time, knowing this, refused to call for the search which would have inevitably found Alchiabiades at this lover's house, thus thoroughly disgracing him, because he didn't wish to condemn a young man of so much potential.
Hence we know that running off with one's lover was a terrible crime that would ruin one's political career.
