IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.49880 of 2008 SURENDRA SAO son of Dhurbiran Sao, Resident of village Marpimahta, P.S. Sasaram, Dist. Rohtas … … Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … … Opp. Party For the petitioner: Shri Anil Kr.Saxena For the State: Shri Dashrath Mehta,APP ----------- 3. 19.1.2009 Heard. The petitioner picked the pocket of the informant by taking out his purse from the back pocket of his pant. The petitioner was chased by the informant and his companions and he was caught and the recovery of the purse was made from him and he was handed over to the police. The contention is that there was no money in the purse of the informant and a A.T.M. card of the informant was only what was found therein. It is not that the offence is complete only when the money or some property is found, the property has to be removed from the possession of a person so as to causing wrongful gain to oneself and wrongful loss to the victim. The A.T.M. card is also a property. 2 The very act of the petitioner and its seriousness do not allow this Court to direct the release of the petitioner. The petition is dismissed.
