A pricy crime? (6)

I believe the answer is:

piracy

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

'crime?' is the definition.
(piracy is a kind of crime)

'a pricy' is the wordplay.
'a pricy' can be anagrammed to 'PIRACY'.
However, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for piracy that I've seen before include "Maritime or commercial robbery" , "Robbery on the high seas" , "Crime" , "Buccaneering" , "Robbery at sea or of copyright" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
