Robbery on the high seas (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

piracy

'robbery on the high seas' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for piracy that I've seen before include "Robbing of ships at sea" , "Illegal copying" , "Act of plagiarism" , "Robbery on the high seas" , "Crime" .)

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