<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">political protection</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for asylum that I've seen before include "Shelter given to refugee" , "Place of shelter or refuge" , "'Refuge, sanctuary (6)'" , "Refugee's protection" , "Refuge or home for mentally ill" .)
