Inquisitor 1311

Last one (letter!) - should be a normal clue. I think I'm
missing the blindingly obvious.

26ac. He deplores person with cerebral disability
being housed in the centre of Palermo. (5)

LA?ER

Can sort of justify LAMER but can't convincingly
parse the clue.

[puzzled272]

Perhaps Blamer -B; anag. in middle of Palermo??

LAMENTER

AMENT= a person who fails to develop mentally

LER = the middle of Palermo

Then you have to remove MEN to fit the answer in the grid.

HI Puzzled
It is not a normal clue, but is paired with 1 across.

[boreas]

Many apologies, I should have said you have to remove MENT

[boreas]

Many more apologies (and very red face).

Remove MEN not MENT

[puzzled272]

Many thanks to you all, and MY apologies -- sloppy score keeping on my part; I had registered that MEN was added to 1ac but had overlooked the fact that I hadn't removed it from elsewhere!

Just about to start but I only have a scanned copy which is very small - when I try and enlarge I lose all clarity - can anyone help? Do I need OCR? be grateful for an empty grid. Thanks
