Explanation:

The figurative meaning of the phrase "our hands are clean" made by Creon simply means that, though Antigone is dead, but he sees no reason why he should be held responsible or blamed for the incident. To him, there is no business linking him and Antigone's death together and would prefer if he is not bothered about it.
