Stick used as a weapon in India (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lathi

(Other definitions for lathi that I've seen before include "Indian policeman's stick" , "Long, heavy stick" , "Heavy iron-bound stick used for crowd control by police in India" , "Indian police baton" , "instrument of punishment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
