Implied, indirect (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

implicit

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'implied' is the first definition.
(I know that implied can be written as implicit)

'indirect' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for implicit that I've seen before include "Unquestioning - expressed indirectly" , "Suggested but not stated" , "Not actually stated" , "Understood but not openly stated" , "Suggested indirectly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
