Аналогично, та же ситуация. В моей руке 0 карточек. Но игра требует от меня сделать ход.

Same experience as WittyLois in Nov 2020. My only option is to choose a card and my hand is empty. "Pass" is not an option. I'm going to time out, get kicked out of the game, and lose karma.

Another player clued me in that even though the instructions said "you must choose a card", what I actually had to do was steal gold from another player because the round was over and I had played a theft card.
So there's not a bug in the program, but the instructions provided are inadequate and confusing.
Overall, the saboteur adaptation is the weakest I have encountered on BGA. On my turn, I have often been puzzled about where to click to do what I wanted to do, even if I knew what action I wanted to take.
It has been frustrating enough that after this interminable turn-based game finally ends (two months and counting . . . ) I do not plan to play this game on BGA again.

This is technically a DISPLAY bug. From the game log, it's clear that people do actually work out what they need to do as @koder72 has stated.
All actions within the game are to play a card. At the end of the round, if a player:
- has a "theft" card in front of them (visible in the screenshots, next to the role card)
- does not have a "trapped!" card in front of them
- there is gold available to steal
then that player must use their theft card to take 1 gold piece from another player.
In the user interface, this card's action is used by selecting another player's panel.
This is why it is a display bug - because the instruction should read something like "steal a gold piece by selecting another player's panel"
Don't forget to check the help section for a game if something is not clear!

@koder72 - real-time is much more fun!
