Clubs in which offenders may have been found (5)
I believe the answer is:
irons
This clue might be a double definition.
'clubs' is the first definition.
(I know that iron is a type of clubs)
'in which offenders may have been found' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for irons that I've seen before include "Fetters, handcuffs" , "Golfclubs with metal hands" , "Metal-headed golfclubs" , "British actor" , "Golf-clubs with metal heads" .)
