Villain, wrongdoer (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

miscreant

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'villain' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'wrongdoer' is the second definition.
(I know that miscreant is a type of wrongdoer)

(Other definitions for miscreant that I've seen before include "culprit" , "Offender" , "criminal" , "behaving unlawfully" , "scoundrel" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
