Against the law (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

illegal

illicit

'against the law' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for illegal that I've seen before include "Black-market" , "Felonious" , "Forbidden" , "Such an immigrant" , "Prohibited by law" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times, The Sun, the Wall Street Journal, the LA Times, The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
