Remove weapons from woman with second member (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

disarm

'remove weapons' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'woman with second member' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'di' (short for Diana).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'member' becomes 'arm' (member can mean a limb).
'di'+'s'+'arm'='DISARM'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for disarm that I've seen before include "Abandon MAD" , "Mollify or remove weapon from" , "to allay hostility" , "Render defenceless" , "Take away weapons or win over" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
