Refrain from being involved (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abstain

(Other definitions for abstain that I've seen before include "Refrain (from drink)" , "not come down on either side" , "Choose not to vote, or drink" , "Refrain from doing something" , "Pass" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
