0 $begingroup$ I came across this apparently well known cryptic crossword with a twist but was unable to solve it. I also haven't been able to find a solution anywhere online so I was wondering if anyone here could help me finish it. Thanks in advance. Link to download it.

SUFISM - end (ultimately) of belieF IS in SUM (total). Fits definition. 11. GRISLY - double meaning - bear & horror. Not sure what 'Reportedly'
