Doctor slain by Africans (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

libyans

'africans' is the definition.
(Libyan is an example)

'doctor slain by' is the wordplay.
'doctor' indicates an anagram.
'slain'+'by'='slainby'
'slainby' anagrammed gives 'LIBYANS'.

(Another definition for libyans that I've seen is " Africans".)
