Scolded severely (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flayed

(Other definitions for flayed that I've seen before include "Stripped off skin by whipping" , "Skinned -severely beaten" , "Stripped skin from or criticised severly" , "Stripped skin or hide off" , "flogged" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
