Infers (7)

I think it could be either:

gathers

deduces

'infers' is the definition.
('gather' can be a synonym of 'infer')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gathers that I've seen before include "Gleans" , "Draws together" , "The rags (anag.)" , "Assembles" , "Collects in one place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail, The Mirror, the Sydney Morning Herald and the Evening Standard.
