Charge with a crime (6)
I believe the answer is:
accuse
'charge with a crime' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for accuse that I've seen before include "Bring a charge" , "Charge with a crime" , "Make charge against" , "Lay blame for wrongdoing on named person" , "Put on trial" .)
