Hello, teachers.

Are the following sentences acceptable?

1.They are not related to/with the crime.
2.They have no relation to/with the company at present.

Thank you in advance!

Junkomama:

Yes. Both of your sentences look good to me whether you use to or with.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Hello, Mike-san.

Thank you very much for your response and I'm sorry for my delayed thanks!

By the way, I've read that "I have no relation to the crime." is inappropliate.
Then, "be related to/ with " has wider usage than "have relation to/with" ?

Thank you in advance!
