Hooded killer found in The Palace - the one managed by the yoga teacher while meditating (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
king cobra
'hooded killer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in the palace the one managed by the yoga teacher while meditating' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'in' is found in the answer.
'one' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'found' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for king cobra that I've seen before include "Hooded giant" , "hooded killer" , "Venomous type" , "Large Asiatic snake" , "venomous customer" .)
