Return to custody (6)
I believe the answer is:
remand
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">return to custody</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 remand that I've seen before include "Send back into custody or bail" , "Place (defendant) on bail or in custody" , "Return to custody while evidence is being sought" , "Return prisoner to custody pending further investigation" , "Return (often) to custody" .)
