Three letter word for expert followed by a five letter word for criminal.
The answer generally means suspend or adjourn (e.g. parliament).

H'mm, I'm not sure I like this clue. I know lots of rogues, but none of them are criminals! (And prorogue, withdraw, seems a little bit of a stretch too.)

Mr Singh's clues are sometimes a bit 'beige' :)

Thanks Jazzgirl (and good to hear from you!).
Should we not answer these in that case, or are hints / nudges ok?
