Innuendo - an unpleasant, unfriendly hint or disguised, indirect comment or slur. Example: The police arrived, purportedly having a search warrant, and proceeded to turn the contents of the house upside down and inside out.
Here puportedly implies, without explicitly saying so, that the police did not in fact have a search warrant or that something about the warrant was not in order.
Innuendos are often sexual, for instance saying to someone (particularly a boy) who's holding a stick/branch: 'that's a big stick you've got' could be subtly referencing their penis.
