Illegally-obtained (3-6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ill-gotten

(Other definitions for ill-gotten that I've seen before include "These gains are obtained by unlawful means" , "These gains are through evil or unlawful means" , "Obtained unjustly" , "These gains are the product of crime - need telling to" , "Acquired by unworthy means" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
