Kept in custody (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

held

'kept in custody' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for held that I've seen before include "Clasped" , "Detained" , "Retained, kept" , "Retained; grasped" , "Grasped, carried" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
