Explosive accusation? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

charge

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'explosive' is the first definition.
(charge is a kind of explosive)

'accusation?' is the second definition.
(accusation is a kind of charge)

(Other definitions for charge that I've seen before include "impeachment" , "In which an offender may be given" , "Price asked; fill" , "offensive, > explosive > tax" , "person in custody" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
