Crossword Genius

Politician's immorality with power over citizen (4-9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vice-president

'politician's' is the definition.
(vice president is a type of politician)

'immorality with power over citizen' is the wordplay.
'immorality' becomes 'vice' (vice can mean immoral behaviour).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'power over' becomes 'p' (I've seen this in other clues).
'citizen' becomes 'resident' (I've seen this before).
'vice'+'p'+'resident'='VICE PRESIDENT'

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
