Kidnapper's payment (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ransom

(Other definitions for ransom that I've seen before include "Romans (anag)" , "Price demanded for release" , "Freedom payment" , "demand an extortionate price" , "Money to get a hostage released" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
