'sought by his enemies' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'fellow with scars' is the wordplay.
'fellow' becomes 'man' (fellow can mean a man).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'scars' becomes 'marked' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'man' put after 'marked' is 'MARKED MAN'.

'is' is the link.
