Declare not guilty (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acquit

'declare not guilty' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for acquit that I've seen before include "Declare to be innocent of a crime" , "Pronounce innocent" , "Group of families" , "Clear of a crime" , "Free (from charge)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
