Executed for having cheated (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

done

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'executed for' is the first definition.
'done' can be an answer for 'executed' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not certain of the 'for' bit.

'cheated' is the second definition.

'having' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for done that I've seen before include "Cooked; carried out" , "Thoroughly cooked; accomplished" , "Finished or ended" , "agreed" , "Managed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
