It was in a comentario to an article in a Spanish newspaper. Sometimes the people to respond aren't native speakers. This commenter did seem to have written it in a very Spanish accent (if you could write in an accent).
They wrote something like "tiene que ceder el beneplácito de la duda." It seemed strange to me, and you confirm that.

I'm nearly sure it's a regionalism. The person who wrote the comment communicated well. As you know, peninsular Spanish, like British English, has quite a few differing vocabulary choices.

It was in commentaries on this article, but now there are so many. Good luck finding it.
