Is one charged for crime? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

battery

This clue is a double definition.

'is one charged' is the first definition.
(full of power or not)

'crime?' is the second definition.
(battery is a kind of crime)

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for battery that I've seen before include "One's charged" , "Artillery subunit; extensive range (of things)" , "Gun emplacement - egg farm" , "Power source; artillery unit" , "Personal attack" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
