Secret police inspector is heard (5)
I believe the answer is:
cheka
'secret police' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cheka that I've seen before include "Bolshevik secret police 1917-22" , "Former Soviet secret police" .)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
