Profanation (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sacrilege

'profanation' is the definition.
(I know that profanation can be written as sacrilege)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sacrilege that I've seen before include "Sinful behaviour" , "Violation of something sacred" , "Violation of a holy thing" , "Blasphemous behaviour" , "profanity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
