Ill-treat (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

misuse

'ill-treat' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for misuse that I've seen before include "bad treatment" , "Ill-treat" , "Maltreat" , "Apply badly or incorrectly" , "Poor treatment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
