Record suppressed by force (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
put down
This clue could be a double definition.
'record' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'suppressed by force' is the second definition.
'put down' can be an answer for 'suppressed' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'by force' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for put down that I've seen before include "Write" , "Slight" , "Recorded - snub" , "Quell; snub" , "Record - suppress - disparage" .)
