Devious slash (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oblique

This clue is a double definition.

'devious' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

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

(Other definitions for oblique that I've seen before include "Slanted" , "Indirect - evasive" , "Slanting, indirect" , "This angle is obtuse or acute" , "Slanting, or expressed indirectly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
