Tenant thrown out in Leeds and Lahore (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leaseholder

'tenant' is the definition.
(leaseholder is a kind of tenant)

'thrown out in leeds and lahore' is the wordplay.
'thrown out in' indicates anagramming the letters.
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'leeds' after 'lahore' is 'lahoreleeds'.
'lahoreleeds' anagrammed gives 'LEASEHOLDER'.

(Other definitions for leaseholder that I've seen before include "Person with property rights" , "One renting property" , "Tenant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
