Some horrible person an outcast (5)

I believe the answer is:

leper

'outcast' is the definition.
(I know that leper is a type of outcast)

'some horrible person an' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'LEPER' can be found hidden inside 'horrible person an'.

(Other definitions for leper that I've seen before include "Someone shunned" , "Person shunned socially" , "Undesirable" , "Social outcast" , "skin disease" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
