Amy accepts cosy place in human rights group (7)
I believe the answer is:
amnesty
'place in human rights group' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'amy accepts cosy' is the wordplay.
'accepts' indicates putting letters inside.
'cosy' becomes 'nest' (I've seen this before).
'amy' going around 'nest' is 'AMNESTY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for amnesty that I've seen before include "A general pardon as for rebels (7)" , "Men stay (anag.)" , "A general pardon for nasty me" , "Official pardon for political offences" , "General pardon - international charity" .)
