Prosecution-free period (7)

I believe the answer is:

amnesty

(Other definitions for amnesty that I've seen before include "General pardon - international charity" , "Legal pardon" , "Period of pardon" , "General pardon, usually political" , "A general pardon as for rebels (7)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
