Damn rogue involved in mysterious case (7)

I believe the answer is:

accurse

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

'rogue involved in mysterious case' is the wordplay.
'rogue' becomes 'cur' (I've seen this in other clues).
'involved in' is an insertion indicator.
'mysterious' is an anagram indicator.
'case' anagrammed gives 'acse'.
'cur' placed within 'acse' is 'ACCURSE'.

(Another definition for accurse that I've seen is " Damn".)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
