After considering the evidences and conclusions in previous trials, the Court could not establish that the Trial Courts or the High Court were wrong in holding the case against the appellant. Implied consent for the trainer to fly an aircraft do not apply here, as there were telephonic signals sent to the aircraft, to bring it back. Wrongful gain can be mere unlawful acquisition of a property, creating ‘temporary’ loss to the Government. The circumstances conclude both the essential ingredients of theft – absence of consent and unlawfulness of means. From the factual analysis, the Court concludes that the wrongful gain and loss were intentional. However, considering that the appellant has already undergone imprisonment, his sentence was modified to the period already undergone. The appeal was dismissed while maintaining the conviction.
