Perhaps this person is guilty (7)

I believe the answer is:

suspect

(Other definitions for suspect that I've seen before include "one on bail, perhaps" , "Possible perpetrator of a crime" , "Questionable" , "Imagine to be guilty" , "Possibly dangerous or false" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
