Seize wrongfully (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

usurp

'seize wrongfully' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for usurp that I've seen before include "Take (power) by force or illegally" , "Take (power etc) illegally" , "Seize without right" , "Take over - misappropriate" , "Seize, take over" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the Evening Standard and The Guardian.
