Fair — punishment (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fine

This clue is a double definition.

'fair' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'punishment' is the second definition.
(I know that fine is a type of fine)

(Other definitions for fine that I've seen before include "Capital - punishment" , "Very good; penalty" , "Sunny -- penalty" , "Fee payable for misdemeanour" , "First-rate - punishment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
