Irish police infiltrating group of sugar daddies (5)
I believe the answer is:
garda
'irish police' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'of sugar daddies' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'GARDA' can be found hidden inside 'sugar daddies'.
'infiltrating group' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for garda that I've seen before include "Italian lake - Irish policeman" , "An Irish limb of the law" , "Irish police officer" , "Policeman of the Irish Republic" , "Irish state police force" .)
