Stand torture (4)
I believe the answer is:
rack
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'stand' is the first definition.
('rack' can be a synonym of 'stand')
'torture' is the second definition.
(racking is a kind of torturing)
(Other definitions for rack that I've seen before include "Old torture device on which victims were stretched" , "Instrument of torture (a stretcher)" , "Shelf for luggage" , "giving rise to anxiety" , "Storage frame; joint (of lamb)" .)
