Both A and B
None of the above
Answers (1)
A person who finds property not in the possession of any other person, and takes such property for the purpose of protecting if for, or of restoring it to, the owner does not take or misappropriate it dishonestly, and is not guilty of an offence; but he is guilty of the offence above defined, if he appropriates it to his own use, when he knows or has the means of discovering the owner, or before he has used reasonable means to discover and give notice to the owner and has kept the property a reasonable time to enable the owner to claim it. Here it appears there was not time provided to put notice for the owner. Hence, no misappropriation of the property and the property can’t be considered stolen. Hence, option D is correct.
