Not admitting (7)
I believe the answer is:
denying
'not admitting' is the definition.
('deny' is the opposite to 'admit')
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for denying that I've seen before include "Refusing to admit truth of (something)" , "Declaring to be untrue" .)
I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
