Organise escape of special group (6)
I believe the answer is:
spring
'organise escape' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'special group' is the wordplay.
'special' becomes 'sp' (abbreviation).
'group' becomes 'ring' (a ring is a criminal organisation).
'sp'+'ring'='SPRING'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spring that I've seen before include "Bound < to get out of prison" , "Source; help escape (from prison)" , "early in the year" , "Water gushing" , "in which vegetation begins to appear" .)
