Ruthless ruler (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'ruthless ruler' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tyrant that I've seen before include "Autocrat or despot" , "bully - with 17d" , "Martinet" , "Oppressor" , "big bully" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Universal.
