Crossword Genius

Liberate group at no cost (3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

set free

'liberate' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'group at no cost' is the wordplay.
'group' becomes 'set' (both can mean a collection).
'at no cost' becomes 'free' (I've seen this before).
'set'+'free'='SET FREE'

(Other definitions for set free that I've seen before include "without the box" , "Release, remove restraints" , "Uncaged birds have been" , "Turn loose" , "no longer confined" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
