Throttle holy man with right point of view (8)
I believe the answer is:
strangle
'throttle' is the definition.
('strangle' can be a synonym of 'throttle')
'holy man with right point of view' is the wordplay.
'holy man' becomes 'st'.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'point of view' becomes 'angle' (angle is a kind of point of view).
'st'+'r'+'angle'='STRANGLE'
(Other definitions for strangle that I've seen before include "Tanglers who suffocate" , "Suppress; choke" , "Finish off" , "Subdue" , "cut off supply of air" .)
