Someone who punishes wrongdoing (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avenger

(Other definitions for avenger that I've seen before include "Inflicter of retribution" , "one evening?" , "He seeks satisfaction or retribution" , "party retaliating" , "One who gets even" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
