Charged with putting under test perhaps (9)
I believe the answer is:
entrusted
'charged with' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with ownership as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'under test perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates anagramming the letters.
'under'+'test'='undertest'
'undertest' is an anagram of 'ENTRUSTED'.
'putting' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for entrusted that I've seen before include "Given for safekeeping" , "committed" , "Placed (into someone's care)" , "Gave responsibility to" , "invested with responsibility" .)
