It seems to be chechaquo or chechaqua but why? Where's the prison term? Or have I got the E,C or U wrong?
Any help appreciated.

Thanks GrannyS but why? I did google to narrow it down, will do so again to see if the explanation's there.
Thanks again.
In Chambers Quod is a prison or to imprison. If the letter D could mean a term of some sort (term wanted) this would make some sense but I can't see it myself.
term wanted - terminal letter of quod? seems possible
On second thoughts the terminal letters of both check and quod are to be removed, with the "a" then put between them
