Detain (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

arrest

intern

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">detain</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for arrest that I've seen before include "Stop (on suspicion)" , "Take into custody as police do" , "Stop, check (progress)" , "Bring to a standstill" , "apprehend a law-breaker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Times, the Penny Press and the Evening Standard.
