Declare something to be the case without proof (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allege

(Other definitions for allege that I've seen before include "hold" , "Assert - maintain" , "Aver - maintain" , "Make accusation without proof" , "Aver (without proof)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
