What's used in court to suppress fraud? (6,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

squash racket

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fraud?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'what's used in court to suppress' is the wordplay.
'what's used in court' becomes 'racket' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'suppress' becomes 'squash' (I've seen this in another clue).
'racket' after 'squash' is 'SQUASH RACKET'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for squash racket that I've seen before include "One of a couple in court" , "Equipment used in an enclosed court game" .)
